useful information, especially about the North of France

I have been looking at a number of books about gardens in France, and this is the only one that I could use to plan a trip. The coverage is very good, though the vast majority are in the Paris region (Ile de France).Unlike, say, "the Secret Gardens of France", the gardens listed here are open to the public. The notes on each garden are concise. You will need another book if you want to learn about the history of landscape architecture. But the author does provide an assessment of the gardens described: state of repair, relation to original design, beauty, etc. The photo illustrations are very good.My only criticism is that I wish the book was twice as big.
