The Garden, You and I

With a Frontispiece in Colors and Other Illustrations

“The garden and its flowers are the dominant interest, of course, but it is so managed that they shall serve as a setting for the human activities that engage a good share of the reader’s attention. There runs through the book that strong and hearty nature which is characteristic of all this author’s work. Before everything else, it is an outdoor book. It tells for the most part the tale of the open-air seasons.”—Brooklyn Eagle.

Transcriber’s Notes:

A few obvious typesetting errors have been corrected without note. Some illustrations have been moved slightly to keep paragraphs intact.
