The library is pleased to welcome Harry Eudenbach, Newporter, gardener, and author of Estate Gardeners of Newport: a Horticultural Legacy. On Thursday, November 3 at 7 p.m., Mr. Eudenbach will talk about his research and show slides he compiled for his book. Estate Gardeners of Newport tells an entirely new story about a thoroughly storied place: it showcases the lives and works of the people who created the unique horticultural landscape of Newport’s estates. As the book makes clear, it is no accident that Newport is home to such rare and varied trees and bushes. Don’t miss this chance to learn about the Newport gardeners who helped give this city its international reputation.
This event is free and open to the public. No registration required. The author will have copies of Estate Gardeners of Newport available for purchase and singing.
