In the Autumn of
1968, Professor
Freeman S. Howlett
taught Horticulture 805, a course titled "The History and Literature
of Horticulture: From Earliest Times to the Present." The information
presented herein constitutes Professor Howlett's course outline
that was distributed to students. A copy of his Course
Preface
is also provided.
Readers
will notice the emphasis Professor Howlett placed
on highlighting and cataloging the writings of the
historical figures comprising the outline. We should
point out that Professor Howlett's course outline
is not a complete history of horticulture. Our hope
is to expand this resource over time into a fuller
history. Readers desiring additional information on
an individual are provided a link to other resources
available on the Internet.
