Whoa!

I'm amazed that people didn't like this book more... I am also a Land Arch student who had it as an assigned book that was rarely actually assigned. I was thumbing through it in hopes of generating ideas for another class and was amazed at the amount of usable information it contained. Perhaps it is better digested in chunks instead of the whole. I found it great as a reference book.

Photographically splendid. The pictures are breath - taking.

It was the best book I have ever read. I recommend to people who are involved, or want to be involved in the field of landscape architecture.
