    [synopsis] => New York Times bestselling author Marta McDowell has revealed the way that plants have stirred some of our most cherished authors, including Beatrix Potter, Emily Dickinson, and Laura Ingalls Wilder. In her latest, she shares a moving account of how gardening deeply inspired Frances Hodgson Burnett, the author of the beloved children's classic The Secret Garden.

In “Unearthing the Secret Garden”, McDowell delves into the professional and gardening life of Frances Hodgson Burnett. Complementing her fascinating account with charming period photographs and illustrations, McDowell paints an unforgettable portrait of a great artist and reminds us why “The Secret Garden” continues to touch readers after more than a century.

Marta McDowell returns with a beautiful, gift-worthy account of how plants and gardening deeply inspired Frances Hodgson Burnett.

In “Unearthing the Secret Garden”, best-selling author Marta McDowell starts by chronicling Burnett's childhood and early life, with a focus on her growing interest in gardens and her development as a writer. McDowell also shares details of the three gardens Burnett created in Kent, Long Island, and Bermuda. A guide to the plants featured in “The Secret Garden” will delight gardeners. And in a unique addition, McDowell transcribes the complete text of three of Burnett's garden-themed stories, which help to deepen our appreciation of Burnett's love and knowledge of gardening. McDowell complements her delightful text with period illustrations and contemporary photographs that bring Burnett's world vividly to life for the reader, and the book's stunning design makes it a joy to leaf through.

Just as “The Secret Garden” continues to enchant readers of all ages, so “Unearthing The Secret Garden” draws us into a richly textured account of the fascinating professional and gardening life that gave us one of literature's greatest treasures.
