Discovering the Vernacular Landscape

A pioneer in landscape studies takes us on a tour of landscapes past and present to show how our surroundings reflect our culture.“No one who cares deeply about landscape issues can overlook the scores of brilliant insights and challenges to the mind, eye and conscience contained in Discovering the Vernacular Landscape. It is a book to be deeply cherished and to be read and pondered many times.”—Wilbur Zelinsky, Landscape
