Willson, E.J. — James Lee and the Vineyard Nursery Hammersmith

Hammersmith Local History Group, London. 1st edition. V.g.. V.g.. Bookplate. This is both a biography of the nurseryman and a history of the nursery run by Lee with his partner Kennedy, whose name denotes its former use as a vineyard in former times. An appendix lists the many plants that were first introduced to cultivation by the firm. The section on Lee's daughter Ann doesn't mention the large collections of her flower drawings at Kew and in the Earl of Derby's library at Knowsley Hall, but rightly compliments her on the quality of her work. x, 88 pp.
