Seller's Description:
Used-Very Good. This beautiful volume traces the history of the gardens in and around Naples from the times of the Romans to the present. Following an authoritative introduction by the garden expert Elizabeth Blair MacDougal, the individual gardens unfold in a lavish series of photographs. The tour begins with the magnificent Royal Gardens at Caserta, and continues with visits to other public and private gardens in and around the city of Naples. Gardens from Capri, both ancient and modern, are also covered, as are those of the nearby island of Ischia. The reader then travels south along the Miglio d'Oro, past the slopes of Mount Vesuvius where the great Neapolitan villas once lay. A trip through the historically rich Campania region, including the gardens of Sorrento, the terraced gardens of Positano, and the Roman ruins at Paestum conclude the book. The most visually rich work yet published on the subject, The Gardens of Naples will be welcomed by garden lovers as well as by anyone with an appreciation for the unrivaled beauties of the Italian countryside. Very nice clean, tight copy free of any marks.
