Eric Grissell's first book, Thyme on My Hands, was lauded by garden writers and book reviewers. The many readers who were inspired and delighted by the author's first book will warmly welcome his second book of delightful gardening essays. Grissell presents for his readers a series of vignettes documenting a full year's cycle in the life of a gardener and his garden. As the year unfolds, we find that in spite of hail or rain, sickness or pressing obligation, drought or advancing years, or even periodic ineptitude, the garden demands its tending. Graceful, elegant linocuts by master artist Henry Evans enhance the the sometimes thoughtful, sometimes whimsical text. Experienced gardeners will be renewed and refreshed by Grissell's candid wit, novices will find inspiration in Grissell's dedication to gardening and his portfolio of ideas for creative problemsolving.
