Gardens and Their Meaning

GARDENS AND THEIR MEANING by DORA WILLIAMS. The aim of this book is twofold to show the importance of science in the use of spade and hoe and to urge that a garden for education may be, not merely in substance but in spirit, a corner of the great world. It is hoped that this little volume will make friends among the hosts of parents, teachers, and social workers who are trying to increase community efficiency by giving opportunity for richer life during school years. Originally published in 1911. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
