What Are People Saying About The Conservatory: Gardens Under Glass?

“I certainly hope you are feeling proud. It's a very beautiful book and I am quite pleased to have been part of bringing it to life. I do have somewhat of a sense of how much work goes into these things, but the fact that you did it while running your business is pretty remarkable. More power to you both.”
— George Holzer
Photographer & Digital Imaging Specialitst
“It's a story that brings together the worlds of engineering, architecture and horticulture. Food, fashion, plant collecting, power, prestige, science, public education and environmental stewardship all play a part.”
