Jewel of Como celebrates one of the most beloved buildings in Minnesota and, from the standpoint of horticulture and architecture, one of the most important in the world. This stunning new book published by the Afton Historical Society Press tells the story of the Marjorie McNeely Conservatory at Como Park in St. Paul, Minnesota, in words and pictures--breathtaking color photos of the conservatory today as well as historic photos that bring to life its rich and sometimes tumultuous past. The Marjorie McNeely Conservatory (originally called the Como Conservatory) is the centerpiece of Como Park. Designed and built in 1915, the conservatory was intended to serve two functions, as it still does today. The conservatory is both a show house where visitors can come in all seasons to enjoy tropical and semi-tropical splendors, and a shelter for the many plants the park displays in its indoor and outdoor gardens.
