Review:
A celebration of maritime utopias from the Mediterranean, America, Britain, North Africa and Mexico, authors Alexandra d'Arnous and Bruno de Laubadere, accompanied by photographer Erica Lennard, travel together to these seaside oasis'. Protected from the harsh salt-laden winds by vegetative barriers, embracing the rocky cliffs or running into the beach, they are all beautiful examples of sympathetic garden design and expertise. Tropical plantings and structured formality, blowsy florality and natural herbage recall memories of summer holidays and create havens of solitude for their owners in the midst of busy coastlines. The book encompasses our own lush, green jewels of Trebah and Tresco, the Walton's acclaimed La Mortella, an emerald drop in the middle of the Mediterranean, Corsican sculpture gardens, American wilderness gardens, shore-embracing Tunisian retreats, all stunningly designed and created in the face of adversity. This is a fabulous illustrated collection of coastal inspiration - contemporary, and classical - to inspire and dream of, accompanied by knowledgeable and intelligent text. A true glimpse of paradise for lovers of maritime gardens. - Lucy Watson
