London, John Murray, 1892. First Edition. Hardbound. Blue cloth with gold lettering; 73 pp. with 27 bw illustrations. "Two reviews, illustrated, to show, by actual examples from British gardens, that clipping and aligning trees to make them 'harmonise' with architecture is barbarous, needless, and inartistic."

Very good, clean and tight but with ex-lib. marks, including spine sticker and bookplate.
