An island garden
Celia Thaxter and Childe Hassam
127 pages~2 hr 31 min read2 chapters$1.99
On a rocky Isle of Shoals, Celia Thaxter coaxed poppies, larkspur, and hollyhocks from thin salt soil. Her island garden is a season's diary of that small plot: the sowing, the sea wind, the exact colors of flowers she loved and fought to keep alive. Tender, precise, unforgettable. Walk the narrow beds of one of America's most beloved gardens.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
