Faboulous French gardens

This is my favourite book on French gardens (and there are a few around). It's not full of classical palace parks like Versailles, Vaux-le-Vicomte etc, but private and smaller gardens. Villandry and Courances are the only great and famous included. But this offers you a better variation on the best of the French gardens. The chapters are not on regions as such, but on styles (that follows regions mostly however). Italian and English influences are present. Other styles are 'Natural' and 'Idyllic'. The photography is almost perfection. The printing is also extremely good. The short texts are somewhat lacking in information of species depicted so it's firstly a coffee-table book. I've browsed it at least a hundred times over the years and is still impressed with it.
