Book
Unearthing The secret garden : the plants and places that inspired Frances Hodgson Burnett / Marta McDowell.
McDowell delves into the professional and gardening life of Frances Hodgson Burnett, the writer who dominated the literary world of her time. A lover of flowers and gardens, Burnett's path to literary triumph was a long one. McDowell reminds us why Burnett's 1911 novel, The secret garden, continues to touch readers after more than a century.
