Book Description

Published in 1915, this story of an Indian garden is not a guide, but 'merely a rambling record of some years in a garden' which combined European and native plants. Murray's descriptive powers and enthusiasm for her garden make this book both enjoyable and evocative of imperial India.

About the Author

Kathleen L. Murray has drawn on the resources and materials of local libraries, in particular those of the Berlin-Peck Memorial Library, where she serves in the David and Ann Borthwick Local History Room. She has also received valuable information and assistance from numerous generous residents who have shared their knowledge and memories with her. Her mentor was the late Ann Borthwick, town historian. The result, Berlin, is a stirring tribute to a notable town.
