Christopher Thacker

Christopher John Charles Thacker (14 March 1931 – 27 September 2018) was an English garden historian.

After graduating from Brasenose College, Oxford, and a Phd at the University of Indiana, he was an academic, but never as a garden historian, a field still emerging in his day. Mostly he taught French literature at Trinity College, Dublin and Reading University. He was the founding editor of the leading academic journal ''Garden History''. Provided by Wikipedia
