Résumé:

The author provides a study of English garden design in the 20th century. It begins with Arts & Crafts gardens, typified by herbaceous borders & modern planting, & continues with the Edwardian debate between formality & 'wild' gardening, inter-war grandeur, post-war practicality, & the emergence of pioneering artists' gardens.
