Books by Karel Capek

Karel Capek is well known for his early science fiction, notably "The War of the Newts.""The Gardener's Year," in which he gives himself over freely to his true passion, was published originally in Czech, in 1929, and in English by Allen & Unwin in 1931. Long out of print, it found a new life in a 1982 French edition, and now with this Wisconsin reprinting of t he English translation Capek's book takes a firm place among the classic works of gardening literature."
