Sinossi
2021 New England Society Book Award winner
The Adventures of a Narrative Gardener is an entirely new kind of garden book, rather than a homage to contemporary gardens, a survey of historic gardens or a "how-to" manual. Through a careful mix of rich visual imagery and memoir, author Ronald Lee Fleming brings to life the garden he has created at Bellevue House, Newport, and explains his many sources, many of which hold deeply personal memories.

Ron Fleming is the founder and president of The Townscape Institute, a nonprofit public interest planning organization based in Cambridge, Mass. As an urban planner and designer, preservation advocate, civic leader, thought leader and change agent, Fleming’s lifetime of work focuses on creating livable and sustainable cities, towns, and neighborhoods. The author of six books, he was founding chairman of the Cambridge Municipal Arts Council, is Chair Emeritus of Scenic America, and has served many other cultural and civic organizations. His philanthropic work to support initiatives to beautify and improve communities led Newport to declare “Ron Fleming Day,” noting: “Mr. Fleming is a recognized authority in the role of art in creating vibrant, livable places, adding luster to Newport’s worldwide reputation as a showcase of art and architecture.”

Da: Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, IL, U.S.A.
Valutazione del venditore 5 su 5 stelle
Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. This is the story of a garden, Bellevue House, in Newport, Rhode Island, that encompasses history and memory, inspiration and motivation. Author Ronald Lee Fleming has written an entirely new kind of garden book; an empowerment guide for the gardener who wants to invest their own sense of place and family history into the garden structure. Rather than a homage to contemporary gardens, a survey of historic gardens, or a "how-to" manual, Fleming makes a larger argument for classicism as a living language in contemporary times. Through a careful mix of rich visual imagery and memoir, the author brings to life the garden he has created and explains his many sources, including deeply-held personal memories. AUTHOR: Ronald Lee Fleming is an author and the founder and president of The Townscape Institute, a non-profit public interest planning organisation based in Cambridge, MA. SELLING POINTS: . A deeply personal memoir narrated through the lens of a narrative garden. . Shows how landscape can resonate with our past experiences and evoke memories of other garden places familiar to the seasoned garden visitor. 245 colour illustrations This is the story of a garden, Bellevue House, in Newport, Rhode Island, that speaks to us about history and memory, inspiration and motivation.
