The Practical Book of Garden Architecture (Classic Reprint)

4.9/5 (25831 ratings)

Description:Excerpt from The Practical Book of Garden Architecture The preparation of this book has resulted from years of delightful study of art and architecture in connection with a regular college course, and the art course at the Philadelphia School of Design; from an early developed love for outdoor life; and from an intimate study of beautiful home surroundings in the form of garden architecture during extensive travels in various European countries and throughout the United States. Over twenty of the chapters have been written especially for this book, and, with over a hundred of the illustrations, have never appeared in magazines or other publications. Thanks are due to "American Homes and Gardens," "Suburban Life," and "House Beautiful," for the release of certain of my articles and photographs which form portions of ten chapters. Thanks are due also to "Country Life in America" and "House and Garden" for help and inspiration in the study of various water features, engine power, wall treatments, etc. Suggestions and guide-clippings from these magazines have led to the best results in visiting famous gardens for illustrating interesting types of garden embellishment.
