This antiquarian volume contains a concise yet comprehensive guide to
the various enemies of the orchard, with information on how to prevent
and eradicate them. Written in clear, plain language and profusely
illustrated, this informative guide will be of considerable utility to
the orchard-owner or agriculturalist, and it would make for a worthy
addition to collections of allied literature. Although old, much of the
information contained herein is still very much relevant today, making
this both a great addition to collections of antiquarian literature of
this ilk and a useful, practical handbook. Many antiquarian books such
as this are increasingly rare and expensive, and it is with this in mind
that we are republishing this text now in an affordable, modern
edition - complete with a specially commissioned new introduction.
