Praise from 'The Professional Gardener" for Trevor Millum's 'Son of the Secret Gardener'

Updated: Jul 29, 2022

"a fascinating read. The first couple of chapters chronicle the lives of both Millums, putting the diaries into context both historically and socially ... meticulous diaries ... illustrate the life of a working gardener in the middle of the last century ... Many of the activities will be familiar to us all ... while some are unusual ... and others downright odd ... The entries are charmingly illustrated by cartoonist Twink Addison and helpfully annotated by Trevor Millum." The Professional Gardener (The Quarterly Journal of the Professional Gardeners' Guild), July 2022 issue.
