Garden historian Peter Hayden narrates this comprehensive history of the parks and gardens of Russia, spanning a thousand years from the first Byzantine-influenced gardens in the tenth century AD, through to the present day. He discusses the influence of Peter the Great, who introduced ideas, plants and designers from Holland, France and Germany to create St. Petersburg's Summer Garden and the great formal garden at Peterhof by the Gulf of Finland. The introduction of the English style of landscaping owed much to Catherine the Great, and British gardeners were recruited to lay out parks for the Empress and rich nobles. Russian Parks and Gardens provides a wealth of illustration and detailed discussion of some of the most beautiful and historically interesting parks and gardens in the world. This pioneering book promises to become an instant classic.
