Making a Rock Garden by Henry Sherman Adams (1864 - 1948)

A short look at building a rock garden, right from the rocks themselves and how to arrange them, to choosing and placing the plants, touching wall and bog gardens, too. In this little monograph, the author is trying to draw the eyes of U.S. gardeners in to the intimate beauty of this neglected hobby.(The original work has a number of attractive and useful photographs and drawings.)
