Green Grows the City(1st Edition)
by Beverley Nichols, Roy C. Dicks
Hardcover, 316 Pages, Published 2006 by Timber Press, Incorporated
Illustrated
ISBN-13: 978-0-88192-779-5, ISBN: 0-88192-779-1

"Anyone who has ever created a garden knows that it is a process replete with drama: there's the feverish excitement of drawing up plans and making lists of plants; the bleak depression of realizing that the plans will have to be altered; the "Eureka!" moment when a brilliant solution presents itself; the grim frustration of dealing with meddlesome neighbors and recalcitrant plants. For Beverley Nichols (1898-1983), making a new garden i ..."






Down the Garden Path
by Beverley Nichols, Bryan Connon
Hardcover, 296 Pages, Published 2004 by Timber Press, Incorporated
ISBN-13: 978-0-88192-710-8, ISBN: 0-88192-710-4

"Down the Garden Path has stood the test of time as one of the world's best-loved and most-quoted gardening books. Ostensibly an account of the creation of a garden in Huntingdonshire in the 1930s, it is really about the underlying emotions and obsessions for which gardening is just a cover story. The secret of this book's success---and its timelessness---is that it does not seek to impress the reader with a wealth of expert knowledge or ..."

Paperback, 124 Pages, Published 2009 by Timber Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-88192-993-5, ISBN: 0-88192-993-X

"Are you concerned that your friends would melt away if they overheard your conversations with your kitties? Do you worry that it's not natural to know -- really know -- exactly what your cats are thinking? If so, Beverley Nichols is a kindred spirit with delightfully witty and utterly absorbing tales about his three cats, Four, Five, and Oscar. Explaining every permutation of cat psychology from "Amusements" to "Zoos," Nichols has writt ..."






Garden Open Tomorrow
by Beverley Nichols, William Mclaren, Bryan Connon
Paperback, 286 Pages, Published 2009 by Timber Press
ISBN-13: 978-1-60469-097-2, ISBN: 1-60469-097-6

"No devoted reader of Beverley Nichols will want to be without Garden Open Tomorrow. The sequel to his famous Garden Open Today (with its open invitation to readers everywhere to come see his garden for themselves), this is his final garden book and the summation of a long career spent enjoying and writing about gardens. Being Beverley Nichols, however, he cannot confine himself to a narrow discussion of gardening for long and provides e ..."

Dicks. Nichols's humorous ruminations on life in the countryside, as always, are refreshing. The typical Nichols gardening anecdotes and familiar characters are there, as well as the author ..."

"First published in 1939, this text relates the gradual transformation of a forlorn, unpromising patch of London garden into the sort of idyllic and imaginative retreat of which so many city-dwellers dream. The author charts his progress from inception to completion. Buoyed by memories of his garden and "Allways" in Huntingdonshire, his innovations include cunning layouts of pathways and flowering plants, the erection of a domed greenhou ..."

Garden Open Today
by Beverley Nichols, Roy C. Dicks
Paperback, 264 Pages, Published 2009 by Timber Press
ISBN-13: 978-1-60469-096-5, ISBN: 1-60469-096-8

"When Beverley Nichols first published "Garden Open Today" in 1963, he was already well known for his "garden adventure" books such as "Down the Garden Path" and "Merry Hall," whose unforgettable characters still live in the imaginations of present-day gardeners. In "Garden Open Today," however, Nichols attempted a departure from his previous gardening books; he sought to distill 30 years of practical gardening experience in an entertain ..."






Down the Kitchen Sink(2nd Edition)
by Beverley Nichols, Val Biro, Roy C. Dicks, David Stuart
Hardcover, 212 Pages, Published 2006 by Timber Press, Incorporated
Facsimile, Illustrated
ISBN-13: 978-0-88192-804-4, ISBN: 0-88192-804-6

""Down the Kitchen Sink" has much in common with its famous predecessor, "Down the Garden Path", in which Beverley Nichols described his early forays into the realm of gardening. When he began to write the first, he could not prune a rose. When he began to write the second, he could not boil an egg. Perhaps this is why both books remain fresh and eminently readable. The phrase 'kitchen sink' may suggest squalor and disillusionment, but B ..."
