AGC MEMBER EVENT: Book Discussion, American Eden by Victoria Johnson

  • 55 Woodpecker Way Keene, NY, 12942 United States (map)

DEEP BELOW ROCKEFELLER CENTER IN NYC LIES A LEGENDARY GARDEN: Victoria Johnson’s American Eden, our garden club selection for January reveals information regarding the famous but long forgotten doctor-botanist David Hosak and his major plant collection located on the site of present-day Rockefeller Center.  Not only was he a friend of Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr, but he was the doctor present at their deadly dual.  Written in an easy flowing style, you won’t want to put it down.
