Eugène Vinaver was born in Saint Petersburg, Russia and studied at the Sorbonne, concentrating on French and English Arthurian romances. In 1928, he founded the Arthurian Society in Oxford, which later became the International Arthurian Society. Vinaver is best known for his seminal edition of the Winchester Malory.

For over 400 years, it was unclear what, if any, alterations Caxton had made to Malorys original text. This all changed with the 1934 discovery of the Winchester manuscript, a hand-written (rather than printed) text untouched by Caxton, and therefore deemed closer to…

One reviewer noted: "Based on a manuscript written by Harry Butterfield, a Californian devoted to California plants and enthralled by its home gardens, this book owes its existence to the spade-work of Dr. Judith M. Taylor. Taylor found the manuscript by accident, while researching her earlier book on the California olive. While respecting the original record in Butterfield's manuscript, Taylor expands and illuminates it, providing a detailed record of specific California locations, immigrant gardeners and the plants and gardens they cultivated. Taylor's enthusiasm for her subject, fine research and good writing combine in a valuable account of a defining and precious part of California's history."
