This delightfully designed book is a tribute to Garrett Eckbo. . . . The work is a recommended detailed case study for those interested in the Modern Movement and the development of Modernism in landscape design in the U.S. Impeccable sources include Eckbo himself as well as comprehensive archives of his drawings. It is enriched with many early drawings and site photographs, a biographical and professional chronology and a contemporaneous biography. --Architectural Review
