Gardens of Georgia by William R. Mitchell, Special Limited 1st Ed

About the Item

Gardens of Georgia by William R. Mitchell, special limited 1st Ed. Published by Peachtree Publishers, Atlanta, Georgia, 1989. 1st Ed hardcover with dust jacket. Photography By Richard Moore. Writer William Mitchell and photographer Richard Moore have portrayed the wonders of gardens historic and comtemporary, public and private, and urban and rural from each of the three regions of Georgia: North Georgia, Piedmont Plateau and South Georgia. Whether illustrating overall "gradenscapes" or capturing intimate vignettes and individual blossoms, Richard Moore's photgraphs have a depth of color and clarity of detail that immerse you into a world of delightful splendor. The text by William Mitchell not only describes the setting as they are today, but also tells a rich background of history in the context of the botanical "Eden" observed by the early explorers. Beautiful full color photos on nearly every page. There is a large index of gardens in the back of book. NPT Books, a division of Trent Antiques, has a large collection of used and out of print books on art, architecture, decoration and antiques with a focus on 1st editions, signed and limited editions.
