Each of the 85 plants pictured in these gorgeous photos has at least two seasons of interest, and many are exceptional year-round. These plants are the antithesis of "low-maintenance gardening" (which is, of course, an oxymoron anyway). They are the opposite of boring, unchanging municipal plantings like juniper and pyramidalis. Seasonal change is celebrated in the turning of leaves, the fluff of seed heads, blooms and berries, and in a wide variety of garden-worthy plantings.

Such plants lure us out into the garden in every season, making all the work of gardening worthwhile. Vines, trees, shrubs, and perennials, carefully chosen with guidance on combinations and cultural conditions, can be put together to make a garden with year-round appeal. Gardeners are always short on space and so will appreciate that each plant comes with a justification for including it in the garden. Oak-leaved hydrangea (H. quercifolia) deserves inclusion for the unusual shape of its lobed leaves, reliable red autumn color, and creamy summer flower heads; Achillea 'Moonshine' for its silvery green fluffy foliage and long-lasting yellow flowers, ideal for drying. --Valerie Easton

Book Description

Creating a garden landscape that has color, beauty, and architectural interest in all four seasons is far easier than most gardeners might imagine. The secret is to choose versatile plants, while appreciating that brilliant autumn and winter foliage can be just as striking as spring and summer flowers. In Plants for All Seasons, Ursula Buchan shows how, with a little imagination and planning, your garden can be a place of beauty throughout the year. She opens with an introduction to the principles of planting for more than one season of interest. She also shows how to assess your existing planting schemes to adapt them to a four-season plan. The main part of the book is devoted to more than85 plant profiles--shrubs, climbers, trees, and perennials--each shown in at least two seasons of interest. Buchan reveals the special characteristics of each plant at different times of year, including height and spread, habit, country of origin, flowering season, hardiness, and cultivation. Brimming with gorgeous color photos, this is a book that every gardener will want to own.

From the supplier: Penns Woods is the name of the forest which extends West from the Delaware river in Pennsylvania. The area's original inhabitants were Indians, and the area is rich in tribal history. White settlers first came to the area in 1662, establishing the first sawmill in what is now present-day Philadelphia, PN. The arrival of white settlers heralded the beginning of man's impact on the forest, as these settlers began using the trees for commercial purposes.

The founders of the Findhorn Community started out living off of plants, flowers, trees, and organic vegetables in a small plot around a 30-foot trailer.

Book Description

This book documents the commitment of the commanders of Charles I's armies to religious observance and moral discipline. Through a close textual analysis of printed military regulations, royal proclamations, and injunctions, a long tradition of British military regulation is outlined and developmental patterns of influence in the orders are traced. In these sources, swearing, drunkenness, fornication, and duelling, as well as attendance at prayers and sermons were perennial concerns and it may be necessary to re-examine the stereotypical image of the Cavalier. The official foundation of the British Army Chaplains' Corps is finally identified and shown to belong in the Royalist army. Many details about attitudes to and the status of women in the King's armies are provided.

Book Description

The only one to survive an Auschwitz camp, Clary was discovered by an American talent scout after the war singing in a Parisian dance hall.

Customer Reviews:

The courage to forgive.......2007-01-12

I was very impressed with Robert Clary's autobiography. He told of his life with honesty and realism. The nightmare he endured could have destroyed him, or embittered him, or silenced him.

It did silence him for awhile--and understandably so. The only way to survive such horror is to shut down one's emotions and/or block the memories.

But Robert Clary has told his story to teens in high schools, in speeches and interviews elsewhere, and now in his book.

Don't forget...but do forgive.
That's true courage.

Wonderful Book.......2005-11-28

I saw Mr. Clarey speak at my highschool 20 years ago and he left 3,000 students in tears, it was a life changing experience for me, it is a great book and a true story. I canno believe the uneducated gentlemen below had the gall to question if Mr. Clarey was in a concentration camp, you review just lets any one who reads it know your IQ level.

Short.......2002-12-20

First, I would like to clarify something that another reviewer apparently didn't understand. Robert Clary was NOT in a "death camp." He was in a "forced labor camp."

Second, based on what I have heard from him in several documentaries made for PBS, Robert Clary has a lot more that he could have said in his autobiography. He was obviously holding back on information or censoring his experiences. My feeling was that he would take his experiences to the moment of pain and then pull away from them. As much as I liked Robert Clary as Corporal Louis Lebeau on Hogan's Heroes and as a narrator of Holocaust documentaries, I must admit that his writing is not as intense as I was expecting.

A Biography Worth Reading.......2002-11-08

"From the Holocaust to Hogan's Heroes", is a fascinating account of Robert Clary's experiences growing up amid the backdrop of the Nazi occupation of France. Robert proves to be a remarkably 'lucky' individual who has had to face extra-ordinary circumstances and yet has not allowed the scars of Genocide to prevent him from finding personal joy, while allowing that joy to touch others. His exuberance and boyish charm punctuates the pages of his book as he recounts his innocent childhood, the horrific 31 months in Nazi prison camps from the age of 16, and the eventual realization that almost every member of his beloved family had been literally wiped out. His remarkable flight out of purgatory leads him to a renewed zest for living and to his own personal success on stage, television and pictures. His personal insights of the personalities that he met along the way, as well as his jaunt on Hogan's Heroes, keeps you from putting the book aside. Robert Clary literally leaves you wanting more.

Interesting Account of the Holocaust.......2002-05-31

I have been familiar with Robert Clary's work in soap opera, particularly DAYS OF OUR LIVES. I had read several accounts in various magazines, mentioning his experiences in the concentration camps and was quite interested in reading his experiences in his own words.

As an account of the Holocaust, it is of value. However, this was not an easy book to get through. Clary makes reference to so many friends and relatives that after a while it becomes difficult to keep any of them straight. The book varies from depressing to matter-of-fact, without very much relief for the reader from the overwhelming depression of the Holocaust. I had been looking forward to reading about his entertainment career after the camps to get relief from the grief, and then started to feel bored.

Book Description

Robert Clary is best known for his portrayal of the spirited Corporal Louis Lebeau on the popular television series Hogan's Heroes (on the air from 1965 to 1971 and widely syndicated around the globe). But it is Clary's experiences as a Jew during the Holocaust that infuse his compelling memoir with an honest recognition of life's often horrific reality, a recognition that counters his glittering five-decade career as an actor, singer, and artist and distinguishes this book from those by other entertainers.
