I’m honored to be selected among the blogs that will be promoting fellow blogger and author Thomas Mickey’s new book titled America’s Romance with the English Garden.
The book tells the story of how late nineteenth century mass-produced garden catalogs and national garden advertising sold the homeowner the romantic English garden as a garden icon. At a time when people bought Quaker Oats, and not just oatmeal, and Ivory, not just hand soap, homeowners wanted the English garden with its signature lawn.
Here’s how the giveaway works:
