4.0 out of 5 stars Condensed but slightly diluted version if times savers standards
This is a great pocket sized guide to landscape arch standards. Some information is a little vague, but that will happen when you reduce a 1000+ page manual (times savers) into a 100+ page guidebook.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not very useful
I bought this book with the hopes of having a reference that would limit my hours of google research and talking to other designers to try to find answers to common design issues. But for some reason, it seems to have all the information I'm not looking for, and none of the information I'm actually looking for! Buy Time Saver Standards instead. It's heavier and more...

4.0 out of 5 stars Landscape Architect's Portable Handbook, September 10, 2009
This review is from: Landscape Architect's Portable Handbook (Paperback)
Good, general information for LA's and useful to study for the LARE exam, if you are in that emotionally draining state of mind! Some of the more plant-based facts are missing but general survey, administrative, and planning information is very useful stuff to have in a small booklike format.

It's heavier and more expensive, but much more complete.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Basic Resource, January 12, 2008
This review is from: Landscape Architect's Portable Handbook (Paperback)
Shipping wise, it took a little while to get this book- but after opening the cover I have found it to be a great resource. It gives you all the basics and quick references for basic information you may need to know at the drop of a hat.
