Description
|
|
|
|
When English Pleasure Gardens was first published over a century ago, it was acclaimed as a resource for gardeners, tourists, and history lovers alike. With a new introduction, this edition resurrects the pioneering work of the redoubtable Rose S. Nichols of Boston's Beacon Hill, who was nationally recognized for her expertise with native plants and residential garden design. Nichols brings to her subject a deep knowledge of garden history and an incisive critical eye that still resonates today, illustrated with her own line drawings and photos taken during her travels, as she surveys England's monastic gardens, the formal Tudor garden, and Elizabethan flower gardens, as well as the influence of French, Dutch, and Italian traditions.
