I wasn’t even looking for my Mr. Right. I thought I’d found him, and he was just waiting for that perfect moment to pop the question. When the time came, it was far from perfect. The event left me a humiliated, broken-hearted mess. Still, a person would have to be batshit crazy to do what I’ve done, or I’m about to do. Having answered a classified ad, I’m Orange County-bound with all my worldly possessions crammed into five suitcases and an agreement to marry one of four complete strangers - all Navy Seals!

A selection of writings about gardens and gardening by six 19th-century women, compiled by Dee Palmer, a journalist and writer with a special interest in gardening. When she started the research for this audiobook, she expected to find many differences between the experiences of 19th-century women gardeners and those of today. Instead, she was struck by how modern much of their advice is, and her personal selection from the writings of these six women reflects that.
