The Holy Earth' was originally published in 1916. Written by L. H. Bailey, it is an environmental classic that deals with concepts of stewardship and sustainability, very relevant to the current issues faced by humanity. The author was hugely influential in the world of horticulture, being appointed Chairman of The National Commission of Country Life, and cofounder of the American Society for Horticultural Science. This is a fascinating read for anyone interested in early environmentalism. This work also includes a brand new introductory biography of the author.
