"In 1975, on the crime-ridden Lower East Side of New York City, Adam Purple started a garden behind his tenement home at 184 Forsyth Street. By 1986, The Garden of Eden was world famous and had grown to 15,000 square feet, spanning five lots. For Adam--a social activist, philosopher, artist and revolutionary--The Garden of Eden was the medium of his political and artistic expression"--Page 4 of cover.
