From an AI overview: "The book in which nearly two hundred friends of the author participated in "The Flower Game" is titled The Flower Game by Fleur Cowles. In the 1983 book, author and publisher Fleur Cowles invited nearly 200 of her famous friends, including European and Hollywood royalty, artists, and authors, to answer the question: "What ten flowers would you take to a lonely island, assuming anything would grow there?" The book compiles the various responses and lists provided by the participants, offering insight into their favorite flowers and their reasoning. Notable contributors included: Cecil Beaton, who chose a large white orchid. Candice Bergen, whose list included wisteria and night-blooming jasmine. Olivia de Havilland, who listed water lilies, bluebells, and peonies. Douglas Fairbanks, who included a reference to his trademark carnation. Jane Goodall, who found the selection difficult after her first six choices. Princess Grace of Monaco, who included bamboo in her list. The results were used to determine the 'best loved flowers everywhere.' The personal archive of Fleur Cowles, which includes detailed charts and correspondence related to this project, is held at the University of Texas Ransom Center.". INSCRIBED / SIGNED by the AUTHOR. First US edition (so stated). Oversize Hardcover. Very Good condition/No dust jacket. Illus. by Cowles, Fleur (color paintings by). 128 pages. Great Packaging, Fast Shipping.
