Papers, 1940-1991.

This collection consists of Rosalie Doolittle's notes and research for her book Southwest gardening. The collection includes her own garden orders beginning in 1945, and articles she clipped and collected. Also included are the many awards given to Rosalie Doolittle from 1958-1991. The intention of Southwest gardening, was to provide residents of the Southwest, primarily New Mexico, with an easy to understand handbook on the problems and techniques of gardening in this area. Rosalie Doolittle collaborated with Harriet Tiedebohl, and the contents of the book were brought together over a period of three years. Also included in this collection are manuscripts of the first two drafts, as well as a first edition of the published work, containing Doolittle's own handwritten notes and typed additions to the book for revised publication. Revised editions were published in 1959 and 1967.
