A gorgeously illustrated (with some 160 color photographs), coffee-table history of how the Prince of Wales turned his Highgrove estate into a model of environmentally-benign gardening and farming. Actually, only the introductory and concluding chapters are attributed to Prince Charles, the remainder being provided by Clover, the environmental editor for the Daily Telegraph , who sketches in the history of the estate, the making of the garden, the wildflower garden, the way wildlife was encouraged, the reasons behind the decision to make the farm organic, and the development of markets for organic products. 9.5x11.25" Annotation copyright Book News, Inc.

"The pictures...bring inspiration and envy to the heart of almost any gardener, and the text tells an interesting story of the royal gardener's victories and defeats."--The Times. Take a royal tour of Prince Charles' celebrated Highgrove Estate, led by the future monarch himself. In his own words, he chronicles his frustrations, failures, and finally success at turning his Cotswolds home into a matchless example of enlightened gardening in action. Every breathtaking photograph attests to his achievement, including landscapes of blossoms, meadows with wildflowers, fields with grazing animals, and elegantly established structures. The Prince has spent the last decade realizing this challenging and inspiring dream, and he now wants to share it with gardeners, farmers, horticulturists, and anyone concerned with maintaining the countryside and environment at large.

Sir Thomas Sopwith’s 101-year life spanned aviation history. A contemporary of the Wright brothers, he went on to become a highly successful airplane manufacturer in his own right: his Camel and Pup revolutionized aerial combat in World War I. His Hurricane and Lancaster were among the most successful designs of World War II and the remarkable Harrier "jump jet" emerged from an industrial empire that included over time, Sopwith Aviation, Hawker Siddeley, and AV Roe, an empire that employed up to 127,000 people. But Thomas Sopwith was more than a remarkable aviation pioneer and industrialist, he was a sportsman in the old tradition and one of the world’s leading 12-meter-class yachtsmen. Pure Luck traces the remarkable history of Sopwith, narrates the moments of triumph and tragedy during his early life and describes the events leading to his 80-year involvement in aeronautics – ballooning, early days at Brooklands, and the founding of Sopwith Aviation. His wisdom and record of achievement are recorded as Pure Luck reveals Tommy Sopwith’s private and business life and places his astonishing career in perspective. With justification, Sir Thomas Sopwith can be classed among the most influential non-political figures this century.
