| Abstract/Contents: | Calls attention to the noticeable decline of Britain's parks in the last few decades, arguing that the parks are terminally ill and require serious medication to render a successful cure. Conveys the feeling that the parks have become just an extensive area of short mown grass. "The aesthetic gardener is in great need of a renaissance, to create and manage landscapes that are beautiful, that conjour excitement and stimulate adventure." |
