Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'The most soul-satisfying gardening book in years.' -New York Times (March 1982, reviewing the 1981 cloth edition from IU Press). 'Genuinely a classic . . .' -Los Angeles Times (on the occasion of Houghton Mifflin's paperback edition, which came out in 1994). 'Is there anyone alive with the slightest interest in gardening who doesn't know that Henry Mitchell is one of the funniest and most truthful garden columnists we've got ' -Allen Lacy 'Mitchell is a joy to read.

Here's one example: Marigolds gain enormously in impact when used as sparingly as ultimatums. Henry Mitchell came to his subject with reverence, passion, humor, and a contagious enthusiasm tempered only by his sober knowledge of human frailty. The Essential Earthman is for all who love gardening-even those who only dream of doing it.…
