基本説明

This is the first comprehensive reference work to cover all aspects of Australian gardens, and the history of gardening and garden design in Australia.

Full Description

Australia has an enormously rich heritage of gardens and gardening and there has never before been a reference work of this scale with this diversity covering this wide-ranging subject. Ten years in the making, The (Oxford) Companion to Australian Gardens covers all aspects of Australian gardening from Aboriginal land management practices to modern garden design. Interest in gardening and garden design has increased over the last few years. The aim of the Companion is to further the understanding of gardens and gardening and provide a useful reference tool for anyone with an interest in gardens, landscape gardening, art, and architecture. With around 400 entries, the text covers topics such as designed landscapes, agriculture, architecture, art, botany, ecology, forestry, horticulture, landscape architecture, town planning, and viticulture. With the help of their team of over 200 expert contributors, Richard Aitken and Michael Looker have produced an authoritative and comprehensive reference work. The main text is lavishly illustrated and many of the illustrations have never before been published.
This is a must-have reference work for anyone working in or studying garden design or landscape design, particularly those who have an international interest in the subject.
