About This Item

New York: E.P. Dutton, 1972. This Fifth Edition from 1972 of a book originally published in 1966 is in Fine condition, but with the signature of the former owner on the front free endpaper. The unclipped dust jacket is in Very Good+ condition, with some small chips on the spine crown and rear panel. I've placed the dust jacket into a Brodart protective sleeve. (Click on photo.) Gertrude Foster was the editor of The Herb Grower Magazine and was one of the foremost experts on herbs in her day. Her instructive guide to the care and growing of numerous herbs remains definitive. She and her husband grew over 250 species of herbs at their Falls Village, Connecticut, home. The book is bound in a blue-green cloth with black titles of the spine and a vignette drawing of a potted herb plant on the front panel. The book measures 5 3/4 by 8 1/2 inches and includes 255 pages, with Index. . Hard Cover. Fine/Very Good+. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
