"Michael Emery and Irwin Richman's latest exploration of American culture is both a historical and visual masterpiece. As someone who is a third-generation grower of the rose, ""the queen of the garden,"" this book provides an important niche in the literature of gardening. It is a book that will always have me thinking of spring and summer.
