From Library Journal:

Photographer Schinz, a contributor to House & Garden , here captures classic examples of British, French, Italian, and American garden design with stunning color photographs taken at each garden's moment of perfection. The book includes cottage, herb, rose, and kitchen gardens, and perennial borders, and treats modern trends in chapters on landscaping and the naturalized garden. The text explains design principles and gives historical perspective on different styles. Althogether, it's a beautiful and informative book recommended for large gardening and design collections.
