The Garden at Highgrove

When The Prince of Wales bought Highgrove House in 1981 the surroundings consisted of a brown path which ran around the house, a lawn and a few thorn bushes. Twenty years later, he has transformed the land adjoining the house into several exquisite gardens which embody his gardening ideals and organic principles. With help from some of Britain s finest designers, including The Marchioness of Salisbury, Rosemary Verey, Miriam Rothschild and Sir Roy Strong, the Prince of Wales has created highly individual gardens which have now, with his own ideas, reached maturity. The Prince of Wales describes the thinking behind each garden, the mistakes and the triumphs, and his plans for the future. Lavishly illustrated with photographs which capture both the scope and detail of each garden, this is a book which will delight and inspire both gardeners and horticulturalists at every level.

He was born and raised in Texas and educated in Texas Public Schools. After graduating as Valedictorian of his High School class in 1945, he spent four years at The Rice University studying the hard sciences. He was introduced to Darwin and evolution when he studied Human Biology under the laboratory assistant of Thomas Huxley, Dr. W. D. Davies. He completed his education at Abilene Christian University and The Divinity School at Harvard University. He was licensed to be a Marriage and Family Therapist at Abilene Christian University. He has preached at various churches of Christ in four different states and lectured at a racially integrated South African preacher training institution. After preaching, teaching and counseling for fifty-seven years, he has 'semi-retired' and now serves the Oak Hills Church, San Antonio, Texas, as a consultant in Biblical Theology and teaches an advanced Bible class and a class in Koine Greek for lay members. The basic assumption of The 8th Day is that, since Modern Science and Evangelical Theology can trace their history back to a common origin in the thinking of theologians and philosophers in The Medieval Christian Universities, the destructive warfare is both unnatural and unnecessary. It is a conflict between some preachers and some scientists; not a war between science and the Bible. The author believes that only by means of dialog between a Biblical-Christian World view and the presently dominant Scientific-Materialist World View, can peace between to two come about and bring benefits to mankind and a holistic understanding of the whole Creation. The 8th Day develops a Biblical-Christian World View based on a new interpretation of the Creation Stories that is able to meet in equal dialog with the Scientific-Materialist World View. It also traces the developments in modern science that make such a dialog possible.

The Prince of Wales has spent the last twenty years turning his Highgrove estate in the Cotswolds into a model of environmentally benign farming and gardening. HIGHGROVE: PORTRAIT OF AN ESTATE records the successes, failures and lessons to be shared not only by gardeners, horticulturists and farmers but by everyone interested in the countryside and in the environment at large. The Prince of Wales writes about his vision for the countryside with infectious enthusiasm and passion, providing a fascinating introduction and conclusion, while Charles Clover, the Environment Editor of the Daily Telegraph, superbly sketches in the backcloth: the history of the estate, the making of the garden, how wildlife was encouraged and the reasons behind the decision to make the farm organic. The book is gloriously illustrated throughout with colour photographs by the expert garden photographer Andrew Lawson.
