It explains its role of Britain and America (and indeed of Humanity itself), elaborates in minute detail the botany of a grass field or lawn, talks to the groundsmen of Wimbledon and West Ham, explores the ornate history of the lawn-mower and the minutiae of cattle-breeding, and surveys the development of the municipal park.
