Synopsis "The Book of Asparagus: With Sections also on Celery, Salsify, Scorzonera and Sea Kale (in English)"
This special re-print edition of Charles Illot's book "The Book of Asparagus: With Sections also on Celery, Salsify, Scorzonera and Sea Kale " is one of the most authorative works on growing asparagus, as well as celery, salsify, scorzonera and sea kale. Written in England in 1901, this classic work on vegetable gardening is one of the only books to offer much detail on the growing of asparagus, as well as celery and several lesser known vegetables that were once popular in British vegetable gardens. Chapters include The Culture of Asparagus, Soil and Site, Varieties of Asparagus, Seed Beds, Sowing the Seeds, Planting, Harvesting, The History and Cookery of Asparagus, The Culture of Sea Kale, The Culture of Celery, The Culture of Celeriac, The Culture of Salsify or Oyster Plant, Scorzonera and much more. Truly the only book of its kind ever published. Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As a result, some type characters and images might suffer from slight imperfections or minor shadows in the page background.
