The photography (subject matter and photo quality) is below the standards of most gardening books and magazines. I chose this book as a gift, but after seeing it, decided not to give it to the intended recipient.|0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.||From the Publisher|-Photographed on location in the United States, France, England, and Wales |-The first comprehensive book on the subject |-Offers divine inspiration for domestic gardens, from cutting to herb and vegetable gardens, orchards, and vineyards|
A rare look at the integral role a garden plays in the life of a monastery. Here, gardening is not undertaken for decorative purposes alone. Instead, fruits and vegetable flavour meals, and carefully tended refuges are the perfect spot to pray. Throughout the book, members of different orders discuss the divine purpose of gardening and its symbolic significance in Christian faiths.
