📘 Liberty Hyde Bailey, born in 1858 was an American horticulturist, botanist and author. Throughout his life he poured his knowledge and love of the science into over sixty books and a huge number of articles for magazines and journals. His most significant contributions to the field were in the botanical study of cultivated plants, notably emphasising the importance of Gregor Mendel's work on cross breeding and hybridizing. The Garden Lover was originally published in 1928 and here being republished with a new introductory biography.
