Now, although it is acknowledged
that many useful ideas may be gathered from these works, still it is
obvious that they are chiefly written for those whose rank in life
enables them to employ a chief gardener and assistants, qualified for
the performance of the many operations required in the various
departments of large gardens. As I profess to have a very different
object in view, I address this book to those, who, without aiming to
become professional gardeners, wish, nevertheless, to acquire so much of
the art of Gardening as shall enable them to conduct its more common and
essential operations with facility and precision.
