Comprehensive history of the gardens, from the plant collectors of the Edwardian period to conservation in the twentieth century; Informative and accurate details of plant species -many of which are unique to the Rothschild gardens throughout Europe; Ashton Wold is a world-renowned centre for the research and conservation of plant life; Miriam is a well-established and respected scientist, natural historian and conservation gardener; Full colour photography throughout by renowned garden photographer Andrew Lawson, as well as archive photography from the author's private library; The Rothschild family members are famous for their contribution to the financial world through the long established Rothschild Bank, and in the world of wine for their remarkable grapes and high quality wine. However, this accomplished family has a lesser known talent, the talent of gardening, Miriam Rothschild's family tree bears the fruit of plant collectors, botanists and fruit growers. The wild flowers at her home in Northamptonshire are known and appreciated by conservationists and entomologists from around the globe. The Rothschild Gardens is a celebration of the Rothschild family's history of gardening. Miriam's text gives a personal insight into each of the gardens featured, and this together with the beautiful colour photography provides each reader with an exclusive viewing of a stunning collection of parks and gardens. Miriam has been assisted by Kate Garton, garden consultant to Hodsock Priory Gardens in Nottingham. Kate travels around the UK and overseas in her capacity as lecturer and garden designer. Lionel de Rothschild has contributed his horticultural knowledge as well as his increasingly well-known photographs. Many of the Exbury photographs shown in the book are Lionel's own.
