About this Item

As new condition cinnamon cloth boards with blindstamped from cover lettering and dark brown spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. The upper right jacket tip contains a tiny repaired closed tear (see photographs); the jacket is in otherwise as new condition. Includes Acknowledgments; Introduction: The Power of Garden Structure and Photo Credits. Illustrated with over 300 color photographs plus instructional line drawings. "Marrying inspiration with the nitty-gritty of design, materials, and methods, Garden Structures covers all the different ways to create a framework on which a garden grows. Beginning with the very idea that makes a garden a garden - enclosure - and its expression as a fence or wall, through the most elaborate of structures, including greenhouses, decks, and pavilions, the ten chapters in this book celebrate the ways that gardening and building are linked. A chinoiserie trellis, herb beds edged in wattling, brick arches dripping with honeysuckle, flagstone walkways - this is how we carve our unique niche in the world's vastness. Illustrating the book are more than 300 color photographs plus instructional line drawings that show how structures are integrated into a garden, offer a range of possibilities, and help the gardener carry out the most involved plans." - from the inner front jacket flap.
