This is gardening at ground level, history with dirty fingernails. The late son of the Huxley dynasty of scientists chronicles the derived-from-agriculture gardening techniques and implements invented and used across cultures and the centuries. Huxley also considers more recent greater numbers of leisure gardeners optimizing smaller lots, growing from seed, and organic gardening. Includes numerous black and white illustrations.
