Abstract:
Throughout his life author Paul Green carried note cards in his pocket on which he would jot down words and phrases he remembered from his early years in Harnett County. The cards were filed and later became the basis of Paul Green's WORD BOOK: AN ALPHABET OF REMINISCENCE. From this his daughter Betsy Green Moyer, an expert photographer, has compiled the entries relating to flowers. Together with her co-editor, botanist Ken Moore, she has matched flower photographs with Green's comments. The result of the three-year project is Paul Green's PLANT BOOK: AN ALPHABET OF FLOWERS & FOLKLORE.
