Dr. James K. Roush is a 2007 Riley County Master Gardener. He gardens on a shallow façade of clay overlying the chert and limestone bedrock of the Kansas Flint Hills that provides a sharp contrast in gardening experience to the deep Indiana soils he was raised on. When he’s not gardening, reading about gardening, or writing about gardening, he is a small animal veterinary orthopedic surgeon and a Professor at the Kansas State University College of Veterinary Medicine. Empty-nested, only a long-suffering wife and a faithful canine now compete for his attentions with the garden.
Dr. Roush has written a book of essays based on his personal experiences in the garden, Garden Musings, published in 2009 by iUniverse. Comprised of wry and irreverent observations about gardening and life as a gardener, Garden Musings provides a refreshing look at every gardener’s struggles with plants, animals, the environment and gardening orthodoxy. Garden Musings is available for preview and purchase on Amazon. A Kindle version is also available at Amazon for those 21st Century gardeners who don't want to hold a solid book in their hands. ProfessorRoush, himself, prefers his books in physical form.
