| Publisher Description: Caroline "Danske" Dandridge (1854-1914) was a prominent West Virginian poet and historian of her generation. In numerous articles published in the leading gardening magazines of the time, Dandridge brought readers to her country estate on the outskirts of Shepherdstown, West Virginia. A place she called Rose Brake. The Garden at Rose Brake is the first collection of Danske Dandridge's garden writings. These articles provide delicate and sumptuous descriptions of Rose Brake's gardening delights and offer a glimpse into the life of one of West Virginia's most acclaimed writers. Justin McHenry is a writer and historian, and the archivist for American Public University System. |
