by Sarah Stein

  • NATURAL HISTORY
  • 1995

  • 308 PAGES

Stein makes a powerful case for appropriate, ethical landscaping in suburban America in this eloquent testimony to the importance of ungardening. She describes the transformation of her own backyard in Westchester County from suburban monoculture to haven for native plants and animals, including a woodland, hedgerow to attract birds and a meadow.  (USE361, $14.00)
