Harvard Book Store welcomes SUZANNE STAUBACH—author of Clay and Guy Wolff, Master Potter in the Garden—for a discussion of her latest book, A Garden Miscellany: An Illustrated Guide to the Elements of the Garden, illustrated by Julia Yellow.
About A Garden Miscellany
Do you know a folly from a ha-ha? Can an allée be pleached? Does a skep belong on a plinth? Answers to these questions—plus a gazebo-ful of information, stories, and visual delights—await in this charming exploration of the stuff gardens are made of. Garden historian Suzanne Staubach covers everything from arbors to water features, reveling in the anecdotes that accompany each element. Filled with revelations and fanciful illustrations by Julia Yellow, A Garden Miscellany promises new discoveries with each reading—a book to be returned to again and again.
Praise for A Garden Miscellany
“The right amount of useful advice and, when applicable, educational historical tidbits… Julia Yellow’s whimsical illustrations, generously scattered throughout, ensure the work remains charming as well as informative. This is both a pleasure to read and a valuable resource to fall back on for the enthusiastic gardener.” —Publishers Weekly
