Excerpt from A History of Gardening in England I also wish gratefully to acknowledge the kindness of Mr. J'. G. Baker, in looking over the following pages whilst still in proof-sheets. The correction of the proofs had been rendered an easy task for me by the kind co-operation of my friend, Miss Margaret macarthur. My thanks are also due to Professor Skeat and Mr. James Britten for their help in the identification of some of the plants mentioned in the fifteenth-century manuscripts, and to Mr. R. E. G. Kirk, who assisted me in deciphering some of the earlier Latin ones; also to Mr. Michael Kerney for revising my bibliography of printed books on Gardening to the end of the seventeenth century. I regret that the continuation from the year 1699 has not received as much time and attention as I wished to bestow upon it, as I have had to complete it rather hurriedly on account of my having been absent abroad for several months.
