Our price $65.00

Henderson discusses English Tudor and early Stuart country houses within the context of their landscape settings. She discredits the prevailing notion that the gardens on these great estates were highly ordered, asserting that even at this early date the natural landscape was appreciated. New documentary material and the rediscovery of buildings original to these properties buttress many of the author's groundbreaking findings. 50 colorplates, 160 illustrations.
