"It's a garden in Kent that's said to have inspired one woman to create a classic of children's literature - and now a new book explores the life and times of the man who helped to create that garden" - so begins Kent Life's gorgeous magazine feature about Maytham Hall, the home of Frances Hodgson Burnett (author of 'The Secret Garden') and Trevor Millum's book chronicling the lives of his gardening grandfather and father. The book includes detailed gardening diaries and charming illustrations as well as photos. "A unique insight ....While the diaries record an era that's lost, our passion for gardening as a nation pastime - and increasingly as a means of supplying food - remains" says Kent Life (August 2022 issue) www.kentlifemagazine.co.uk
