An Edwardian Garden: from the Diaries of Herbert Druitt
52pp with black and white illustrations. In illustrated card covers (very slightly rubbed at spine ends). Internally neat, clean, bright and tight. The Edwardian garden of No.5 High Street evolved from early Victorian times and was tended by one family for nearly sixty years. It was the home of James Druitt, solicitor to the town of Christchurch, and the Edwardian diaries of his son, Herbert, contain a wealth of information regarding the garden, its banks and borders, making it a show-place for visitors and a venue for garden parties on a grand scale. 8vo.
