Gardens of Persia Hardcover – 3 Feb. 2009

Well researched, well written, great illustrations. Informative read. Plenty of topical ideas for water preservation and shade development.

interesting

the beautiful photos in this book are of course all genuine but perfectly positioned so as to give the best possible view which in reality, ie when you're there, can be a little disappointing.......

As I am certainly not a gardening enthusiast, I was positively surprised by this amazing book. It is setting its topic into the (long Persian) historical background, draws interesting conclusion between Persian and Western gardens, and is simply a good read.A special mention should be given to the nice photos and, in particular, the engravings, which give an impression of how the sites developped in the last centuries.

fast service, nice reading book every gardener would love this book. would reccommend this to everyone who loves to garden
