Welcome to Flea Market Garden Style, where we're well-rooted in a decidedly unstuffy approach to landscapes.

This book celebrates the very best of the perfectly imperfect aesthetic with 192 pages chock-full of hundreds of fresh ideas for planters, lighting, furniture, and more. Plus, you'll get to explore seven real-life dream gardens. Get ready to be inspired as you chart you own course down the garden path.

Lincoln
by Edward Zimmer
The village of Lancaster became the state of Nebraska's first capital city in 1867, renamed Lincoln. Not everyone predicted its success. One early observer noted: "There are no roads leading to it now. It has no commerce and there is scarcely a wagon load of produce raised annually within ten, perhaps twenty miles of it." These postcards from the authors' collections tell a different story in 200-plus images of a city that not only survived but thrived. Most of these images are from postcards' heyday in the first quarter of the 20th century. Many show buildings and places still recognizable a century later, while some depict less familiar scenes now lost.
