These three volumes illustrate the relationship between house 
and garden, and the beauties of every type of garden, both 
formal and natural, in a way never before attempted. They 
afford a complete survey of the whole history of garden design 
and garden architecture, considered from every point of view, 
historical, artistic and horticultural. 
‘The title given to this handsome book hardly does justice to the contents. The 
gardens that it so lavishly portrays, charming as they are, would be without life 
and meaning, except as settings to the priceless old English halls, manor-houses, 
and castles that are centred in each well-chosen view. There must be almost a 
thousand of these fascinating pictures in this one volume, and all, with one exception, 
have been chosen from sixty-four famous places, so that one does not merely have 
a passing glimpse of a multitude of widely-scattered scenes, but, on an average, 
fifteen careful outdoor studies of each beautiful house and its surroundings.’’
