Mrs. Whaley & Her Charleston Garden

Emily Whaley's garden in Charleston, South Carolina, may be the most visited private garden in the country. It is the life's work of a vibrant, sociable, opinionated, determined, forceful woman who has spent the last 85 years cultivating whatever life offered her. Thanks to Baldwin's unfailing ear, Whaley's distinctive voice offers readers a clear understanding of how one might cultivate a practical personal philosophy alongside one's garden.
