Glorious Gardens To Visit In Northern California… di Priscilla Dunhill
More about "going visiting" than about getting your own hands dirty, with notes on accessibility and what you'll find there. It can be a great inspiration to visit places like these, or a splendid choice of where to take the ideal picnic.
If you love Victorian illustration you will be in heaven with this terrific book. It is a treasury of over 100 Victorian era verses set up in sections about Childhood Years, Sprites and Goblins, Rules for Growing Up, Absurdities, and the World of Nature. The illustrations are full color and just as charming as you could possibly wish. The quality of the paper, printing, cover, and dustjacket are all top-notch. There are interesting margin notations that give the history and background of the verses and pictures. Here's a parting thought from the book. "Ride, ride the carousel, Reach for the golden ring, Never to finish, But begin again. Life is a circular thing."… (altro)
