Beginning with Filoli, the century-old, forward-looking estate
situated just south of San Francisco, and closing with The Park,
the first public garden ever created in Las Vegas, John Hill takes
readers on a worldwide tour, one per year, of beautiful, inspiring,
creatively designed, and historically significant landscapes. From
the leafy promenades along the Ljubljanica River in Slovenia and
the lush, tropical gardens at Lunuganga in Sri Lanka, to the Peace
Memorial Park in Japan and the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in
Washington, D.C., each of these public sites is currently
accessible-a fact that makes this grouping a superb "must-see list"
for landscape enthusiasts. Double-page spreads feature color images
paired with Hill's insightful texts. An introductory essay lays out
Hill's selection criteria and an overview of major landscape design
innovations and trends from 1917 to 2016. Fans of landscape design
will treasure this compendium and students in the field will come
away with a greater understanding of how and why the creation of
outdoor public spaces has evolved over time.
