The Gardens of Venice and the Veneto takes in a varied selection of gardens old and new, large and small, public and private. It ranges from tiny monastery gardens tucked away within the walls of Venice to grand palatial landscapes in the former marshes of the hinterland. The book is divided into five sections as well as a lively introduction which captures the rich history of this region. The first section will show the extraordinary gardens still to be found locked behind high walls in the city itself. Then Jenny Condie and Alex Ramsay wander through the more modest parts of the city where ordinary Venetians manage to grow flowers, fruit and vegetables in the most unlikely spots. Then it is out into the lagoon and wild gardens on marshy islands before turning inland to the grand Palladian villas and the Baroque splendours of villas like the Villa Barbarigo and the Villa Allegri Arvedi among many fine country residences of ancient families. All the gardens in the book can be reached within a day's expedition from Venice and practical information about access and advice on the best time of year to visit is included for all those open to the public.

A look into the private enclosures of the founding families of the Venetian Republic through the camera of Albrizzi, the introduction by art historian Ileana Chiappini di Sorio, and the text by Mary Jane Pool. Albrizzi's photos are, of course, wonderful--but so would be the snapshots from your Brownie if they were taken in Venice. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Excerpt from A Garden in Venice The Lord God planted a garden In the first white days of the world; And set there an angel warden, In garments of light enfurled. So near to the peace of Heaven, That the hawk might nest with the wren; For there in the cool of the even, God walked with the first of men. And I dream that these garden closes, With their shade and their sun-flecked sod, And their lilies and bowers of roses, Were laid by the hand of God. The kiss of the sun for pardon, The song of the birds for mirth - One is nearer God's heart in a garden Than anywhere else on earth. Dorothy Gurney.
