The modernist history of landscape architecture is deeply marbled with veins of regional and phenomenological sensibility. Master designer Terence G. Harkness reflects this sensibility in every region he inhabits – whether the foothills of northern California, the high plains of North Dakota, or the lost prairies of east central Illinois. The long arc of his work and teaching is essentially and critically eco-revelatory. Yet because Harkness is not principally a scholar, his work has not been widely studied. That omission is redressed by this presentation of Harkness’ most significant and recognizable works, including drawings, plans, models, and photographs. Contributors to the book chronicle Terry’s development and values and position him in the currents of contemporary landscape discourse.

"It’s always a delicate balance of image to text, and this has a nice mix of the prototypical Harkness sketches, vignettes and project photographs, making it not feel too dense but also imbuing it with some substance. Large page spreads highlight sections, and plenty of plans punctuate text by the various authors, along with lots of interview narrative with Harkness in his own words." --Landscape + Urbanism
