Reviews
Olmsted the man belongs to his own time, but his work and words continue to have meaning today... The editors are preserving a life and work instructive for the future as well as the past.
As always in this series, the letters are carefully annotated.
No other landscape designer ever wrote and published so much, just as none enjoys the prestige of a complete modern edition of his works... The volume maintains the high standards of editing we have come to expect of this series.
