| Summary | "Amateur Gardencraft: A Book for the Home-Maker and Garden Lover" by Eben E. Rexford is a gardening guide written in the early 20th century. This instructional work caters to non-professional gardeners, focusing on home landscaping, plant cultivation, and creating aesthetically pleasing gardens through personal effort rather than hiring professionals. The overarching theme highlights the beauty and satisfaction derived from nurturing one's garden and making a home uniquely one's own. The opening of the text emphasizes the joy of home-making through gardening, advocating for the gradual and personal cultivation of one's space. Rexford explains that home improvement stems from simple beginnings, evolving through trial, experimentation, and growth alongside nature. He reassures readers that achieving a successful garden does not require extensive expertise but rather dedication and a love for the process. Illustrative examples and practical advice are promised throughout the work to support amateurs in their gardening initiatives, ultimately leading to a home that reflects their personal touch.
