Typically, with its high-maintenance lawn and overgrown foundation planting, the front yard doesn't enhance the house or provide useful living space for the homeowner. Yet as new properties become smaller and old ones grow shadier, the front garden may be the best place to grow vegetables or flowers, to sit outside in comfort and privacy, or even to swim or play tennis. Mary Riley Smith, a landscape designer who has often dealt with poorly planned and underused front properties, has filled this book with creative ways to make your own front garden beautiful and functional. She shows how to design paths, driveways, and parking areas and how to camouflage unattractive but necessary structures. For privacy, she describes the different virtues of fences, clipped hedges, and loose, flowing hedgerows. When it comes to planting in front of the house, the choices are surprising: instead of a lawn, you might create a colorful cottage garden, an edible landscape, a drought-tolerant meadow of regional native plants, a sea of ornamental grasses, or even a romantic orchard. All of these landscapes, and dozens more from all parts of the country, are illustrated with beautiful photographs. THE FRONT GARDEN concludes with nine case histories, including the landscape designers' plans, that will give you even more ideas for turning your front yard into a beautiful garden. ; FINE/FINE.

Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - In 1975, construction began on the Trans-Alaskan Oil Pipeline, creating the largest world-wide migration of workers in modern history. Men and women, young and old, from virtually every nation in the world, and every walk of life. The lure of fame, fortune and personal challenge in the brutal conditions of Interior Alaska proved to be irresistable to this brand of daring adventurer.

He leaves a broken and abusive home, hitchhiking to Alaska to find his fortune and personal identity. Immediately he is detoured by his lack of money and experience. Preyed upon by the dishonest, broken-hearted because of his innocence with women and lack of personal esteem, he nearly gives up on himself and his quest.
