With the continuous development of garden design there has arisen an increasing demand for a practical and comprehensive book entirely devoted to the right use of Garden Ornament, and this volume has been carefully designed to meet that demand. Every word, every illustration in the volume conveys a lesson to the reader, and the publishers feel they are entitled to congratulate themselves and the public upon the fact that Miss Jekyll, whose reputation in garden design is world-wide, was induced to undertake the authorship of the book.

The right use of water in the garden; the happy employment of Steps and Gateways; the skilful placing of Garden Houses, Sundials, and Seats; the definite value and proper construction of Pergolas; the use of climbing plants; the wanton growth and misuse of ivy and other creepers, are all depicted and described in an authoritative and exhaustive manner.

Examples are furnished from the finest gardens in the country of beautiful Balustrading; graceful Gates, Urns, Vases, and Sculptured Ornaments, Stone Paved Courts, Paved Ways and Garden Seats, Loggias, Orangeries, Garden Houses and Dovecots, Parterres, Sundials, Topiary Work, Pergolas and Treillage, Canals, Ponds, and Water Gardens, Bridges, Fountains and Dipping Wells, Flower Borders, Wall Gardening and Japanese Gardens.

The teaching value and beauty of the illustrations ensure an eager welcome for the book at the hands of all true garden lovers.

"Miss Jekyll's collection in this noble folio is a storehouse of examples, styles and method in the decoration of gardens, a compendium of the history and taste in English Horticulture and a revelation of the treasures of beauty which our country holds."—The Times.
