A Gardener's Labyrinth
By Patrick Kinmonth, Tessa Traeger
289 pages;
Booth-Clibborn Editions
British restraint, romanticism, and deep-rooted eccentricity fill the sumptuous pages of A Gardener's Labyrinth: Portraits of People, Plants & Places, by Tessa Traeger and Patrick Kinmonth (Booth-Clibborn Editions). Visionaries Andy Goldsworthy and Charles Jencks sculpt landscapes of primal energy, while ardent antiquarians Julian and Isabel Bannerman use nature and artifice to create a sense of wild civility.
