Non-fiction, photography, home&garden

This book is a delight to those of us who enjoy gardening as it enlightens a season usually viewed as “dead” and unproductive. Most gardeners wait for the first garden catalog to arrive in spring as a sign to embark from hibernation. The author provides some interesting history of the winter garden. The pictures are wonderful with remarkable displays of winter color. Tree bark enthusiasts will enjoy the beautiful groupings of trees added flair against a winter background. This book displays mostly gardens of France and UK in particular but still an inspiration that winter need not be a time to “wait for spring” but to go outdoors and seek the beauty that lies in the winter landscape.
