Sixth edition of Evelyn's most important horticultural work and the first official book publication of the Royal Society. In 1652 the diarist and translator John Evelyn (1620-1706) began to create the garden at Sayes Court, a project that signaled the beginning of his serious interest in botany and garden history.
