Published to coincide with the 2016 tercentenary of the birth of Lancelot 'Capability' Brown, arguably Britain's greatest ever landscape gardener, this book is uniquely positioned to put Brown's work into its social context.
Kate Felus is a garden historian and historic landscape consultant. She researches designed landscapes of all periods, specializing particularly in eighteenth and early nineteenth-century parks and gardens.
"an enticing new study...Feluś's book is itself an entertainment,
written with a light touch and - like a good party - of just the
right length. Its scholarly underpinnings are fully present and
correct...generously illustrated with apposite figures...Strongly
recommended."--Paul Stamper, parksandgardens.org, January 2017
'delightful'--Henrik Bering, The New Criterion December 2016
