Download or read book Founding Gardeners written by Andrea Wulf and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-04-03 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the bestselling author of The Invention of Nature, a fascinating look at the Founding Fathers like none you've seen before. “Illuminating and engrossing.... The reader relives the first decades of the Republic ... through the words of the statesmen themselves.” —The New York Times Book Review For the Founding Fathers, gardening, agriculture, and botany were elemental passions: a conjoined interest as deeply ingrained in their characters as the battle for liberty and a belief in the greatness of their new nation. Founding Gardeners is an exploration of that obsession, telling the story of the revolutionary generation from the unique perspective of their lives as gardeners, plant hobbyists, and farmers. Acclaimed historian Andrea Wulf describes how George Washington wrote letters to his estate manager even as British warships gathered off Staten Island; how a tour of English gardens renewed Thomas Jefferson’s and John Adams’s faith in their fledgling nation; and why James Madison is the forgotten father of environmentalism. Through these and other stories, Wulf reveals a fresh, nuanced portrait of the men who created our nation.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bartram's Garden: Philadelphia, John Bartram, Born Near Darby, 23rd March, 1699, Died On the west bank of the Schuylkill River, not far from where it runs into the Delaware, lies Bartram's Garden, a garden that was planted more than a hundred and seventy years ago, and had not then its like anywhere in the New World. In those far-away days, Indians of a friendly tribe came and went like apparitions; what was it to them, I wonder, to come out of Penn's woods or step from their canoes into this tended garden; was there not a little catch in the breath, and, for an instant, a misgiving as to whether hunting-grounds were all? We know that, later, Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, and others, weighted with affairs, felt the charm of the garden and rested there. And time and change and neglect have not quite broken the spell. The charm is there to-day, - elusive; much of it, indeed, due to time, for the place is shrouded in memories, an Indian-summer haze about the life of one simple, dignified, happy, tireless man, John Bartram. It is no little deed to make a garden, that "greatest refreshment to the spirits of man." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Brother Gardeners written by Andrea Wulf and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2010-03-09 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating look at the men who made Britain the center of the botanical world—from the author of Magnificent Rebels and New York Times bestseller The Invention of Nature. “Wulf’s flair for storytelling is combined with scholarship, brio, and a charmingly airy style.... A delightful book—and you don’t need to be a gardener to enjoy it.” —The New York Times Book Review Bringing to life the science and adventure of eighteenth-century plant collecting, The Brother Gardeners is the story of how six men created the modern garden and changed the horticultural world in the process. It is a story of a garden revolution that began in America. In 1733, colonial farmer John Bartram shipped two boxes of precious American plants and seeds to Peter Collinson in London. Around these men formed the nucleus of a botany movement, which included famous Swedish botanist Carl Linnaeus; Philip Miller, bestselling author of The Gardeners Dictionary; and Joseph Banks and David Solander, two botanist explorers, who scoured the globe for plant life aboard Captain Cook’s Endeavor. As they cultivated exotic blooms from around the world, they helped make Britain an epicenter of horticultural and botanical expertise. The Brother Gardeners paints a vivid portrait of an emerging world of knowledge and gardening as we know it today.
