Description
"The 200 glorious full-color photographs by Erica Lennard and the engaging text by garden writer and designer Page Dickey capture the spirit and genius of ten designers. A chapter is devoted to each designer - his or her sources of inspiration, style, philosophy, and method of creation. From the bold Southern California designs of Nancy Power to the urban geometries of Madison Cox to the updated French formal style of Louis Benech to the romantic country gardens of Nancy McCabe, Breaking Ground profiles the artists who are redefining garden design categories.". "In addition to the stunning photographs, sketches and garden plans by the designers are also included. An unusual and practical feature of the book is the afterword by Dickey in which she describes how she is applying what she has learned from each designer to her own garden in New York State."--BOOK JACKET.
