Jane Brown. The Art and Architecture of English Gardens. Designs for the garden from the Collection of the Royal Institute of British Architects 1609 to the present day. Rizzoli 1989  Hardcover in DJ. Good/Good Quarto 320 pp


"This work presents the plans, elevations, and perspective drawings of English gardens selected from the collection of the Royal Institute of British Architects. Grouped chronologically, with special sections for buildings and ornament, each garden is further identified by designer, date, and location. Chapter introductions put the gardens in historical and aesthetic context, though these and the general introduction are marred by Brown's meandering style. Garden historians will find this a good survey; students and practitioners of landscape architecture will find inspiration and ideas for their classically oriented designs."
