Overview

This special re-print edition of Liberty Hyde Bailey's book "The Pruning Manual" is a guide to pruning and shaping trees, shrubs, fruiting vines and other plants.Written in 1919, this classic text by one of the greatest masters of American Horticulture, is a literal treasury of information on the why and how of pruning. Special emphasis is given to grape pruning and training.Chapters include The Philosophy or Rationale of Pruning, The Fruit Bud, The Wounds and How They Heal, The Mending of Trees, The Principles of Pruning, Specific Advice on Pruning, Some Special Modes of Training Plants, American Grape Training and much more.In our opinion, the most authorative book on the subject.Note: This edition is a perfect facsimile of the original edition and is not set in a modern typeface. As a result, some type characters and images might suffer from slight imperfections or minor shadows in the page background.
