Designed for the layman as well as the professional, this concise yet
comprehensive guide provides both practical information and
theoretical insights into the design of the Japanese garden. Kyoto,
the capital of Japan for over one thousand years, possesses a
richness of garden art without equal as a living chronicle of
Japanese cultural history and environmental design. Following the
introductory essays are individual entries for more than fifty temple
and palace gardens. The text is augmented by an excellent selection
of photographs, historical prints, maps and color plates.
