It is "Twenty-Five" by our Mr. Nichols and is a very youthful <br />autobiography. It is the only non-gardening book of his that I have or have read. I really must read his biography written by Bryan Cannon. I see that my library has it. Oh good.Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04335523622158333456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9148557807474310110.post-19867677453489814612013-12-17T19:06:25.019-05:002013-12-17T19:06:25.019-05:00Belle, I love his gardening books.

I came to him through the 'Merry Hall' trilogy, but so far have enjoyed everything I have read by him. If you have 'Merry Hall' on your shelf, you might start with it.

He is in his prime with that one!<br /><br />I couldn't believe my good fortune in finding this one among the ubiquitous best sellers and romance novels!Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04335523622158333456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9148557807474310110.post-11142662168819837112013-12-11T11:39:16.622-05:002013-12-11T11:39:16.622-05:00I was so excited to find this book, Joan, and in s...I was so excited to find this book, Joan, and in such great condition. Even though it was a library book, the only marking is the library stamp on the bottom and top of the closed pages. (Does that make sense?) Some former library books are marked all over the place and have those nasty plastic covers on them. This does not. Maybe because it came from a smaller library system? My good fortune!Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04335523622158333456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9148557807474310110.post-2014405048075061132013-12-11T09:21:06.730-05:002013-12-11T09:21:06.730-05:00I've not read anything by Beverly Nichols but ...I've not read anything by Beverly Nichols but already have him on my TBR list. I think he'd be someone I really like. <br /><br />I love it when you find a great deal on a book you've wanted (or a book you didn't know you wanted, but clearly is meant for you!). I've found many wonderful bargains that make my heart skip a beat at my Friends of the Library bookstore--one of my favorite places to shop, because it's like a treasure hunt!Kathy A.
