Photography. Poetry. This is the first book for Mark Steinmetz, a photographer with a very unique, somber vision. Steinmetz has been teaches in the summer photography program of the Art Department of the University of Georgia, at Cortona, in Tuscany. TUSCAN TREES offers a portfolio of some of his most luminous findings. Each black-and-white tree photograph is accompanied by the writing of Janet Lembke, whose "writing tacks between three points: the stuff of her late-twentieth-century life; the tangle of creature and plant in every dimension of tide and river flow; and the haunting, connecting wires of mythos that still knot us to the ancient beginnings"-Annie Proulx.

Janet Lembke loves to garden. But when she moved into her urban home in Virginia, she only had one-eighth of an acre to work with: a small front yard and a small backyard. How she traded a postage-stamp lawn for an edible cornucopia is what this enchanting book is all about. Lembke joyfully guides us on her gardening journey, in chapters called: "Tomato Haven" "The Grass Extermination Project" "Tools of the Trade" "How a Garden Grows" "Herbs" "Flowers" "Vegetables" "Outwitting the Gardener" "Wooing the Green Man, Courting Dame Kind" and "Garden Dreams" From Grass to Garden is chock-full of tips and advice for gardeners with tiny plots, including what plants are compatible with others; garden paths and seating; what vegetables and plants work best in front versus backyards; and more. She offers everything a hopeful gardener needs to reap bounty for the kitchen table from what was once a small, pesky lawn.
