Présentation de l'éditeur Cities the world over are graced with charming but little-known, off-the-beaten-track gardens and green spaces, offering urbanites and garden lovers the chance to enjoy nature. These often small, well-kept secrets are not as grand as those on the tourist trail but are equally delightful and rewarding to visit, if you know where to find them. Beautifully illustrated and packed with information, Green Escapes : The Guide to Secret Urban Gardens is the revelatory insider's guide to these secret gems. A ground-breaking collection of over 280 peaceful sanctuaries in 164 cities around the globe - from leafy pocket parks and secluded monastery cloisters, to tropical conservatories, edible gardens and verdant green spaces. Biographie de l'auteur Dr Toby Musgrave is an authority on garden history with many books to his name. He devised and presented the BBC Radio 4 series 'The British Garden', and has written for many magazines and newspapers. He teaches garden and plant history at the Danish Institute for Study Abroad, and has also lectured at Oxford and Bristol Universities, and the Royal Horticultural Society. He was consultant editor for Phaidon's The Gardener's Garden (2014). Afficher moinsAfficher plus
