Product Description

Product Description
This guide focuses on parks, squares and gardens in and around central London. Each of the 25 entries consists of a scene-setting historical and descriptive introduction, followed by a guided walk and detailed information on highlights encountered en route. Each entry also has a map, showing, in a second colour, the route of the walk and places of interest, such as plantings, statuary and architectural features. At the back of the book are synopses of 20 parks and gardens associated with those described in the main entries. In addition, there are lists of opening times of museums, houses and gardens.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent book, 30 Jun 1999
By A Customer
I have used this book for 7 of the walks in it and found it to be easy to use, full of interesting information and I am looking forward to the other walks.

What else can I say? I have no connection with the author, publisher etc.

4.0 out of 5 stars a really good helpful starting point, but a couple of niggles, 11 Mar 2008
By emma who reads a lot (London) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
I have used this book a few times now, and it's extremely useful. Firstly, it's made me go and look at landscapes I wouldn't have considered before, like Victoria Embankment Gardens. Secondly, it's jam-packed with useful facts about sculptures and trees along the way.

However, I find it frustrating that the maps aren't more accurate; I have often found myself backtracking, even in London parks I thought I knew my way around.

Really worth having, though.
