"This warm and moving true story is set in France and tells the histories of two remarkable families of rose cultivators who eventually became united through marriage, and their work together, and of the creation of the famous Peace rose. The portraits of the main people concerned are superbly created and the account of the long and painstaking problems of developing new roses and of the battle for new rose patents is also of great interest. All who enjoy the roses in their own gardens will enjoy reading this book." Manchester Evening.
