HTML:<b>From the bestselling author of <i>The Invention of Nature</i>, a fascinating look at the men who made Britain the center of the botanical world.<br /></b><br /> <b>“Wulf’s flair for storytelling is combined with scholarship, brio, and a charmingly airy style. ... A delightful book—and you don’t need to be a gardener to enjoy it.”—<i>The New York Times Book Review</i><br /></b><br /> Bringing to life the science and adventure of eighteenth-century plant collecting, <i>The Brother Gardeners</i> is the story of how six men created the modern garden and changed the horticultural world in the process. It is a story of a garden revolution that began in America.<br />  <br /> In 1733, colonial farmer John Bartram shipped two boxes of precious American plants and seeds to Peter Collinson in London. Around these men formed the nucleus of a botany movement, which included famous Swedish botanist Carl Linnaeus; Philip Miller, bestselling author of <i>The Gardeners Dictionary</i>; and Joseph Banks and David Solander, two botanist explorers, who scoured the globe for plant life aboard Captain Cook’s Endeavor. As they cultivated exotic blooms from around the world, they helped make Britain an epicenter of horticultural and botanical expertise. <i>The Brother Gardeners</i> paints a vivid portrait of an emerging world of knowledge and gardening as we know it today.
