Excerpt from The Rose Book: A Complete Guide for Amateur Rose Growers Mr. H. H. Aitken, m.a., has written the chapter on Rose Diseases and Insect Pests, to him also my acknow ledgments are due. With few exceptions, the half-tone illustrations are from my own photographs. Many of them are of roses grown in a small garden, within a dozen miles of Bow Bells, and given quite ordinary cultivation. They depict such blooms as every reader may hope to grow (indeed, he may easily excel them), and do not profess to show rose blooms as they are displayed in the exhibition tent.
