Von Händler/Antiquariat, Mike Park Ltd.
Birmingham, 2012. Very well illustrated, quarto, pp 299, a very good copy in pictorial boards. PLEASE NOTE - this is the second printing of this work and is, in my view, inferior to the first printing. The paper and boards are of slightly poorer quality, but more importantly the book is bound too tightly, so that it has to be held open in order to read it. It remains, however, the only biography of this important figure in Victorian horticulture. [Shirley Hibberd was the first person to successfully promote amateur gardening at a time when it was reviled by the horticultural establishment. He had the courage of his convictions and believed that if he had learnt to do things himself, he could teach other people the same things. If you think home vegetable gardening, urban bee-keeping and vegetarianism are new, then think again. Shirley Hibberd could be your hero, as he was indulging himself in these things 150 years ago.]. First Edition. Pictorial laminated boards. New.
