    Description: From Italy to Switzerland, Germany to Spain, and Philadelphia to New Orleans, Anne Sinkler Whaley Le Clercq describes the beauty of different historic gardens in this collection of essays. A Grand Tour of Gardens: Travelling in Beauty through Western Europe and the United States showcases her excursions to historic gardens around the world. Through her own experiences Le Clercq enables the garden adventurer to anticipate the world of colour, design, and horticulture in each magnificent garden described here. The essays in A Grand Tour of Gardens are filled with history, plant lore, anecdote, and high-society gossip of the most famous public and private gardens of the United States and Europe. A Grand Tour of Gardens begins with an essay by Le Clercq's mother, the late Emily Whaley. Gardening as Art and Entertainment discusses Whaley's iconic garden on Church Street in Charleston, South Carolina, and its other gardens that she knew and describes here. For every garden visited, Le Clercq vividly details new combinations of horticultural art forms and enlivens the reader's imagination. Travelling to Claude Monet's Garden at Giverny, France; Frederick law Olmsted's Biltmore Estate in Asheville, North Carolina; and the garden of Beatrice Rothschild on the Cote d' Azure, Le Clercq features these gardens in words and illustrations. A Grand Tour of Gardens serves as a roadmap for viewing gardens worldwide and provides a set of rubrics for assessing design elements of each garden. Including a wide variety of seventy illustrations, this guide reveals how the featured gardens have unique artistic visions while providing inspiration for planning and improving one's own garden oasis. The tips shared in these essays provide a visitor with the tools for deciphering the language of a nursery. In eight fun-filled chapters, A Grand Tour of Gardens takes the reader on a worldwide visit to the discovery of historic gardens as a source of art, inspiration, and entertainment.

  • Waterstones Somerset Then & Now

    Price: £12.99

    Brand: Waterstones

     

    Description: The landscape of Somerset has changed in many ways over the last century. From Glastonbury to the Quantax, Somerset Then & Now provides a fascinating snapshot of the county in days gone by. The older photographs in this book were taken by local photographer Henry Montague Cooper between 1904 and 1906. Cooper owned one of the county's first motorcars, and used it to tour extensively with his camera. His photographic record of Somerset surpasses that of every other local photographer. Comparing his Somerset to the modern county of today reveals many changes: the mechanisation of farming has resulted in the loss of hedgerows, and flail cutting in the loss of trees in hedges bordering roads. Somerset's traditional industries have now gone, and many ways of life with them. However, much still remains unaltered in the heart of this sleepy rural county, and this book celebrates the unchanging beauty of 'the land of summer'.
