"Because Asheville is situated in one of the great Ecosystems of the world, and the plants that are found in the Garden occur naturally in the mountains that ring the city (not to mention most of the mountains in Southern Appalachians) the Board of Directors felt that information dealing with the time of bloom has universal application, so they decided to bring out a new edition of the work, not only to celebrate the coming century but also the continuing wonder of wildflowes. By simply adjusting for elevation and latitude, this book becomes a vaulable guide to wildflower bloom throughout the Southeast. " Contents include: History of the Gardens; How to use this Guide; Phylogenetic Listing of Plants; Calendar of Flowering dates; Index. No illustrations other than a 2-page layout of the Gardens. ..

Line, Les, editor. THIS GOOD EARTH The View from AUDUBON Magazine. NY: Crown Publishers, c. 1974.
Green boards, black spine, bright gold lettering. Over 150 color photos, many full-page. NATURE. Via an authoritative text and magnificent photographs, this book takes you to the depths of the sea and to the mountain reaches, to flower fields, the Galapagos, a sun-drenched desert of the Southwest, and the challenging frontier that is Alaska. Witness to the past is given in a beautiful chapter on fossils. Since birds no longer dominate the issues of AUDUBON, they also do not dominate this book since one cannot truly be concerned with bird protection without an equal concern for the future of the whole environment . This book is concerned with birds and bighorns, lichens and wildflowers, tortoises and sea urchins, priaries and mountains - all things animate and inanimae that, combined, make up this good Earth. It is to refresh that apreciation - and to help bring an awareness of the infinite variety and fantastic complexity of our planet to the millions of people in the world, that THIS GOOD EARTH is published. The stories are neither tracts nor sermons nor predictions of goom and doom. The pictures do not repeat the blight and destruction that can be witnessed at almost every hand. They are, words and images, a celebraton of beauty, of goodness. It is hoped they will encourage whatever steps are still necessary to keep Earth good, to protect it from the corruptions of the ignorant and the selfish. ; 9-1/4 x 12-1/2"; 256 pages. 051751687X.
