Samuel Orchart Beeton (1831-77), the publishing entrepreneur who
made his wife's Book of Household Management one of the bestselling
titles of the century, gave his name to many other books of
domestic, medical and general information for the middle classes.
(The 1871 Book of Garden Management, published and probably
compiled by him, is also reissued in this series.) This work was
published in 1874 by Ward Lock, to whom Beeton was forced to sell
his own business after a financial collapse in 1866. The book
contains 'such full and practical information as will enable the
amateur to manage his own garden'. It covers flower, fruit and
vegetable gardening, with a section on garden pests and a monthly
calendar of tasks. It also contains advertisements for gardening
and medicinal products, as well as for other books from the
publishers, offering a fascinating insight into social as well as
garden history.
