A first edition, first printing, of Lee Bailey’s quintessential book on gardening and flower arranging all year long, month by month. Bailey (1926-2003) was a lifestyle and entertaining expert as well as an interior decorator, beloved by Nora Ephron, Julia Turshen, and many more. He was Martha and Ina before The Food Network, and his books are brimming with original recipes and ideas, witty how-to’s, and unapologetic style. This is a beautiful copy: some shelf wear to the jacket and a small inscription from previous owner on first endpaper, otherwise gorgeous pages throughout.

Clarkson Potter, 1985
