William Barron is one of the unsung heroes of British garden
design, often overshadowed by other famous horticulturists such as
Capability Brown and Humphrey Repton. William Barron: The Victorian
Landscape Gardener tells the story of an unassuming man who made an
everlasting impression on the British landscape. Tamsin Liddle and
Peter Robinson explore Barron's humble beginnings, delve into the
influences that shaped his work and look at his engineering and
horticultural innovations. Barron's designs have been enjoyed for
more than 150 years, and this book celebrates spaces across the
country - in particular the jewel in his crown, Elvaston. Having
paved the way for the generations of gardeners that followed him,
Barron's work continues to touch the lives of families and
individuals seeking space, enjoyment, and relaxation in an
increasingly urban society. The authors' royalties for this book
will support the longevity of Elvaston, its gardens and
restoration.
