The golden age
As seasonal shoots start to stretch towards the sun, Eye finds a spring in our step.
An appreciation of nature has long been found among Friends. Eye recently took a dip into one fine example, in the pages of a book called The Golden Age of Quaker Botanists, by Ann Nichols (see image, right). Illustrated by Audrey Jennett and Anne Dent, this little gem sheds light on early Quaker plant hunters.
