Knot Gardens and Parterres A History of the Knot Garden and How to Make One Today

"The first section on the history of the knot and parterre, while very informative, is extremely dry, requiring an advanced knowledge of both European history and art to make heads or tails of the author's convoluted prose. The second section, on how to make your own knot garden, again makes little or no reference to its companion, and could and should have been much expanded to include more how-to illustrations on designing your own garden."Whalley, Robin is the author of 'Knot Gardens and Parterres A History of the Knot Garden and How to Make One Today' with ISBN 9781899531042 and ISBN 1899531041.
