Beautiful book, needs a better editor,
By Tina McG "Tina McG" (Kansas City) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The History of Garden Design: The Western Tradition from the Renaissance to the Present Day (Paperback)
I'm reading this book now and plan to refer back to it often. It is quite beautiful and laid out like my art history books from college.
The content is fascinating, tracking the history of garden and park design along with the social, artistic and political movements that influenced it.
