  Since the dawn of civilization, humans have woven tales of extraordinary creatures—beasts that soar through the skies, rule the oceans, or guard hidden treasures. These mythical beings have captivated the human imagination, appearing in folklore, literature, and art across the globe. From the mighty dragon to the elusive unicorn, these creatures have not only entertained but also served as symbols of power, wisdom, and even fear. But why do these legends endure? What is it about mythical beasts that continues to fascinate us, even in an age of science and reason?  
  Mythical creatures often serve as reflections of human beliefs, fears, and aspirations. In many cultures, they are more than just fictional beings; they carry deep symbolic meaning. The phoenix, for instance, represents rebirth and resilience, while the werewolf embodies the struggle between human nature and primal instincts. Dragons, depicted as both benevolent and malevolent, can symbolize wisdom or destruction, depending on the culture. These beasts act as metaphors, helping people make sense of the world around them and offering explanations for the unknown.  
  The origins of these legends are often rooted in real-life encounters or natural phenomena. The discovery of dinosaur fossils may have inspired stories of dragons, while exaggerated accounts of distant animals, such as narwhals, could have fueled belief in unicorns. Similarly, shadows on the ocean’s surface or misidentified sea creatures may have given rise to mermaid myths. Over time, these stories evolved, influenced by oral tradition, artistic depictions, and cultural exchange, shaping the diverse legends we know today.

  From the eighteenth century to the twenty–first, the surprising history and inspiring contemporary panorama of urban gardening: nurturing health, hope, and community. 
  This manifesto for the next food revolution by acclaimed environmental historian Kate Brown speaks to nature lovers, food activists, social–justice warriors, urban planners, WOOFers, and the climate–concerned. 
  Ever since wage labor in cities replaced self–provisioning in the countryside, gardeners have reclaimed lost commons on urban lots. They composted garbage into topsoil, creating the most productive agriculture in recorded human history, without use of fossil fuels. The ecological diversity they fostered made room for human difference and built prosperity, too: in Nazi Berlin, working–class gardeners harbored dissidents and Jews; in Washington, DC, Black southern migrants built communities around gardens and orchards, the produce funding homeownership. 
  Grafting contemporary experience and concerns onto every historical chapter, Brown creates a mesmerizing hybrid past and present, archive and experience, showing how down–to–earth gardeners can reap abundant harvests while fostering mutual aid and political engagement.
