In 1829, Cobbett published "Advice To Young Men", in which he criticised "An Essay on the Principle of Population" by the Reverend Thomas Robert Malthus. That year he also published "The English Gardener", which he later updated and expanded. This book has been compared favourably with other contemporary garden tomes, such as John Claudius Loudon's "Encyclopædia of Gardening".
