Hardcover. Zustand: Used - Like New. 'Here at last is a book destined to restore a more affectionate and personal relationship with the garden. Charmingly written, profusely illustrated, this handsome book introduces the reader to the beauty and wide variety of gardens -- from the landscape designs of ancient China and India to…those of Capability Brown and Walt Disney and the modern American suburban homeowner.'-- John B. Jackson, landscape historian 'The authors begin by establishing some basic principles of gardening, then go on to discuss 20 gardens from places as diverse as ancient Rome to Walt Disney's Magic Kingdom. A provocative, challenging work.'-- 'Washington Post' This is an entirely different garden book: a pattern book in which a score of landscapes and gardens are drawn, described, and analyzed not just as a bouquet of pleasures but as sources, lodes to be mined for materials, shapes and relationships, and ideas for transforming our own backyards. The Poetics of Gardens is a celebration of places and the gardens they can become. wrapped in complimentary Brodart dust jacket protector. BEAUTIFUL COPY!!.
