Engaging and anecdotal, Drewitt's 1928 study delves into the long and fascinating history of this botanical garden in Chelsea. Tracing its origin and antiquity, Drewitt emphasises the unique character of this peaceful garden which still teaches students the names and properties of plants, as it did in the seventeenth century.
