How to Have A Green Thumb Without an Aching Back

2021 Facsimile of the 1955 Edition. "Out of the great mass of gardening books here is one that really delights while it instructs.... Most important of all, it is a labour-saving book, explaining how much of the back-ache of gardening, particularly hand-weeding, can be eliminated by an intelligent policy of mulching, and the use of natural rather than artificial methods of cultivation." The Book Exchange [England]

The author has, over the course of a quarter century of gardening, worked out a method of using mulches. This has cut down her expenditure of hard work and has given her excellent fruit, vegetables and flowers...a new method of mulch gardening.
