Summary: Disappointing
Comment: The best part of this book is Clay Perry's flower photography. He is one of the finest flower and garden photographers and his illustrations of growing flowers in this book are classic. Mind you, some of the illustrations of flowers picked and arranged are a little too cute for my taste.

The text of the book is just average. It's literate enough, but it has no spark of life or interest. The research is O.K too, but it covers no new ground and offers no new insights. I found that disappointing because this topic has opened up in recent years and more rigorous research and more lively writing could have enriched the book and offered the reader greater awareness and understanding of a seminal period in our garden history.

The material is well organized and there is a decent bibliography. With some flair and vision this might have been a book worth reading.
