The forgotten garden that inspired Charles Darwin becomes the
modern-day setting for an exploration of memory, family, and the
legacy of genius. Darwin's childhood garden at The Mount in
Shrewsbury was the site of some of the great scientist's earliest
experiments. It was where, under the tutelage of his green-fingered
mother and sisters, and the house's knowledgeable gardeners, he
first examined the reproductive life of flowers, collected birds'
eggs, and began to note down the ideas that would lead to his
groundbreaking theory of evolution. In The Ghost in the Garden,
Jude Piesse uncovers the lost histories that inspired Darwin's work
and how his legacy, and the legacies of those around him, live on
today.
