About the Book
This Part of my Book, the How and Why of Gardening, familiarizes you with the methods of gardening used tens and hundreds of years ago and introduces you to important people in the history of this subject and how much this occupation has changed; how we have benefited from the innovations especially during the Agricultural Revolution of the 1700's and 1800's up to the present day. Published in 24 Parts over 15 issues, this Book explains how we do what we do in gardening and the science behind it.
