On September 25, 1995, Dr. Annie Elizabeth (Bessie) Delany died at home in Mount Vernon, New York, marking the end of not only an extraordinary life, but of a century-long relationship with her cherished older sister, Sarah. Now, after a quiet year of mourning and reflection, and inspired by Bessie's beloved garden, Sarah has composed a collection of warm memories and delightful anecdotes, illustrated throughout with paintings of Bessie's favorite flowers.
