"fascinating book ….this is a highly enjoyable and thought-provoking book. Wulf combines a sure knowledge of garden history and 18th-century politics with a keen eye for domestic detail and evocative description. By focusing the grand narrative of early America on four individuals, she writes the best kind of popular history. For a reviewer, a test of a good book is whether to keep it or not; another is whether to lend it. Wulfs book is definitely one to keep. But maybe not to lend. Would I ever get it back?,” Irish Times
