What Our reader say
This book has been my joy to follow for years now. I am overwhelmed and profoundly impressed with his work ethic and a blend of art and technicality. This qualified professional has a number of books to his credit among which Recollections of a Southern Landscape Architect counts in large measures on his experience and will be of immense help to anyone interested in landscape architecture and design.
I believe that any person who is interested in design, or more specifically landscape architecture, should familiarize themselves with A Designer’s Sketchbook. Procedures of drawing steps and the referent examples are great. It is a compendium of inspiration and good counsel that any future designer would clearly and literally be able to profit from.
"My kids absolutely loved the FLOWERS: Activity Book of Popular Southern Flowers. It is also informative for them where they can learn about southern flowers and also they play games while learning. I recommend this is as a great starting point for teaching children about nature and gardening.
For an individual who has keen interest in the works of architecture and designing Recollections of a Southern Landscape Architect proved to provide quite an interesting reading. Where he gave detailed narratives of the projects that had been done and the use of historical sketches in the book made it just about perfect blend of information and history. Let’s, not doubt, conclude that this author has got the great command of the landscape preservation techniques.
Looking at The Big Book of Cool Stuff, I silently muttered to myself: ‘I simply couldn’t help it but to remember this.’ Oh how I loved Hot Wheels and G.I. Joe toys as a child of the 60’s and seeing them again really flashed me back in a bit. I think that any grandparent who wants to share with their grandchildren their passion to playing with toys that we used to play with in our childhood will find this book quite useful.
The material itself is solid, and one gets the feeling that the author’s training as a historical restorer and landscape architect played a role in shaping at least some of the narrative. Whether it is seen within his sketches, his view of design, or the manner in which he pays great detail to all of his projects, he provides a very good balance of art with history in all of his works. I will highly endorse this to anybody that would wish to be conscious in environmental conservation.
