- Summary:
- This biography, first published in 1991, will be of interest to the thousands of readers who have come to know Nichols through his gardening books. They will discover an altogether more complex personality than the witty, sometimes sardonic persona he created in his writings. Bryan Connon has written a fascinating study of a talented man in whom, in J. W. Lambert's phrase, a keen mind "functioned beneath the glad rags."
