Book Description
Excerpt from Gardens Old and New, Vol. 1: The Country House and Its Garden Environment But sculpture is as much in place in the landscape as in the formal garden, and is even more necessary in order to replace the features of a more strongly marked style, as the creators of such gardens quickly recognised. Yet there is, perhaps, no more difficult thing than to use garden sculpture well. It should occupy the right place, or none at all, and only the judicious eye can direct the choice. This is especially true of the human figure, for the urn and vase are sometimes almost necessary upon the terrace or by the garden stair. A peculiarly happy effect, full of suggestion in its character, is that of the ascent to the upper lawn at Clifton, which we illustrate here.

Gardens of the Moon
Author: Steven Erikson
Publisher: Macmillan
ISBN: 1429926589
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 498
Book Description
Vast legions of gods, mages, humans, dragons and all manner of creatures play out the fate of the Malazan Empire in this first book in a major epic fantasy series from Steven Erikson. The Malazan Empire simmers with discontent, bled dry by interminable warfare, bitter infighting and bloody confrontations with the formidable Anomander Rake and his Tiste Andii, ancient and implacable sorcerers. Even the imperial legions, long inured to the bloodshed, yearn for some respite. Yet Empress Laseen's rule remains absolute, enforced by her dread Claw assassins. For Sergeant Whiskeyjack and his squad of Bridgeburners, and for Tattersail, surviving cadre mage of the Second Legion, the aftermath of the siege of Pale should have been a time to mourn the many dead. But Darujhistan, last of the Free Cities of Genabackis, yet holds out. It is to this ancient citadel that Laseen turns her predatory gaze. However, it would appear that the Empire is not alone in this great game. Sinister, shadowbound forces are gathering as the gods themselves prepare to play their hand... Conceived and written on a panoramic scale, Gardens of the Moon is epic fantasy of the highest order--an enthralling adventure by an outstanding new voice. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
