| Maureen Carroll investigates the gardens of the ancient Near East, Egypt, Greece and the Roman Empire, and presents a remarkable array of information drawn from archaeological insights and illustrations from tombs, wall-paintings, sculptured reliefs and manuscripts. In an excellent blending of text and illustration, she identifies the many different approaches to horticulture across the ancient world, discusses ancient garden poetry and describes the various types of gardens, including domestic gardens, orchards, parks and sacred and cemetery gardens. | |||||
