Showing Sissinghurst: Vita Sackville-West and the Creation of a Garden by Vita Sackville-West

Author: Vita Sackville West & Sarah Raven
Hardback

Between 1946 and 1957 Vita Sackville-West wrote a weekly Observer column about her gardening life at Sissinghurst. Now, with additional material by Sarah Raven (who, with her husband Adam Nicolson - Vita's grandson - has, of course, lived at Sissinghurst) Vita's writings are once again collected, along with many illustrations both original and new. The book describes the labour of creating of what has gone on to become one of the most visited and inspirational gardens in the world - at the same time showing how gardeners everywhere can use some Vita's (and Sarah's) ideas in their own garden planning.
