Originally published in 1920. "Landscape Architecture is the art of fitting land for human use and enjoyment. The Landscape Architect designs and advises regarding the arrangement, and direct the development, of land and the objects upon it in connection with private grounds and gardens, institutions, public parks, playgrounds and squares, cemeteries, streets and parkways, residential communities, and problems of city and regional planning." ......... Despite is early years much of the information will still be found to be useful and practical today. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
