Gardens take many forms, and have a variety of functions. They can
serve as spaces of peace and tranquilty, a way to cultivate
wildlife, or as places to develop agricultural resources. Globally,
gardens have inspired, comforted, and sustained people from all
walks of life, and since the Garden of Eden many iconic gardens
have inspired great artists, poets, musicians, and writers. In this
short history, Gordon Campbell embraces gardens in all their
splendour, from parks, and fruit and vegetable gardens to
ornamental gardens, and takes the reader on a globe-trotting
historical journey through iconic and cultural signposts of gardens
from different regions and traditions. Ranging from the gardens of
ancient Persia to modern day allotments, he concludes by looking to
the future of the garden in the age of global warming, and the
adaptive spirit of human innovation.
