Very lightly used, very well looked after. Light fading to spine; otherwise Fine.
Both a plant history and a useful reference book, Maggie Campbell-Culver has researched the provenance and often strange histories of many of the thousands of plants, exploring the quirky and sometimes rude nature of the plants, giving them a personality all of their own and setting them in their social context.
The text is supported by beautiful contemporary paintings and modern photographs.
