‘ ‘ In the construction of every kind of building required in a garden, the ‘ structural ’ section
of the work will he found to contain a large amount of information suitable alike for buildings
and gardens. Mr MTntosh being himself one of the most experienced garden architects of our
time, minute details are given, so that the expense of even a pit, up to a garden replete with
every necessary erection, maybe at once ascertained, a matter of no small importance to gentlemen
about either to form new gardens, or improve such as already exist. . . . On the whole
this volume on structural gardening, both in compilation and artistical execution, deserves our
warmest commendation.
“ The second volume is of a cultural character, and has been got up with great care and research.
I t embodies the opinions and practice of the older writers on Horticulture and also
what is of more importance, the experience of our eminent modem gardeners on the subject
together with the opinions of our author, who has studied and practised the art for upwards of
half a century, both in this country and on the Continent. . . . We therefore feel lustifled
in recommending Mr M'Intosh’s two excellent volumes to the notice of the. public "—Gardeners’
Chronicle. * '
