From Booklist

The Bridgewaters, a husband-and-wife team, present 15 attractive, diverse, and gratifying outdoor projects and the instructions for building them, including a Celtic-patterned walkway, an earth-and-stone retaining wall, a Japanese rock garden, a stone planter, a boulder and coping wall, a Roman arch shrine, a serpentine walkway, and a Japanese suiseki stone. They recommend 22 materials suitable for making the projects and list the basic tools needed to do the work of preparing a foundation and constructing walkways, steps, patios, retaining walls, containers, columns, pedestals, rock gardens, and sculptures. With 144 color photographs, the Bridgewaters' ambitious how-to will help guide the homeowner in creating delightful stone projects. George Cohen
