Barry's Fruit Garden P. Barry

This vintage book is a complete guide to growing fruit on a small scale. Profusely illustrated and highly accessible, this volume is highly recommended for growers with little previous experience, and, would make for a great addition to collections of vintage agricultural literature. Contents include: "Names, Descriptions, and Offices of the Different Parts of Fruit Trees", "Soils", "Manures", "The Different Modes of Propagating Fruit Trees", "Pruning--It's Principles and Practice", "The Nursery", "Soil, Situation, etc.", "Permanent Plantations of Fruit Trees", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. We are republishing "Barry's Fruit Garden" now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on growing fruit and vegetables.
