Book Reviews of 1001 Gardens You Must See Before You Die
Book Review: Nice But stupid
Summary: 3 Stars
I bought this book because I
a) Like Gardens
b) Travel a lot.
with a view that It might be useful to check out areas I'm visiting.
It would be much more use for this if it was decently indexed.
The ordering is so ideosyncratic as to be effectively random. There is no single index by nearby places, (you have to constantly thumb beween the directory by country and contants page by garden name, no maps, and an almost complete absence of practical information.
So what is it for?
its only any use as an ornament if there is no way you are ever going to visit these places otherwise it is just frustrating
