This story has its roots in the life of George Owen Millum, who at
the turn of the 19th century was the head gardener at Maytham Hall
in Kent, the home of Frances Hodgson Burnett, long celebrated for
her timeless classic The Secret Garden. The garden in the story was
based upon that at Maytham Hall, and George Millum was the model
for Ben Weatherstaff, Frances Hodgson Burnett's fictional gardener.
George's son, George Charles Millum, who like his father was born
in the gardener's cottage at Maytham, also grew up to be a country
house gardener - hence the title of this book, written and compiled
by his own son with detailed extracts from his diaries.
