Description
"Pioneers of American Landscape Design introduces you to the geniuses and more ordinary folk who brought about the key decisions that shaped American landscapes and public spaces - and established the United States as a leader in land design, planning, and conservation.". "Told in 160 biographical essays illustrated with more than 450 plans and photographs (100 in full color), this book is the first to embrace the entire scope of this important, historic subject. Pioneers of American Landscape Design takes you from border to border and across time from pre-American Revolution to modern designs from the recent past. This broad-spectrumed portrait expands conventional definitions of landscape architecture to include key figures not previously associated with the profession. At the same time, it focuses in to bring you previously unrecognized details of design and development."--BOOK JACKET.
