Publisher's Note
Chronicles the life and career of landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted, and the effect his ideas had on American culture.

Industry Reviews
"[Olmsted] has been well served by his biographer...who has overall presented a varied portrait of the man and the artist and also created a fairly rich diorama of Olmsted's times."
Jansen

"Rybczynski, an architect who did not settle into his present calling as a writer until he had reached his forties, seems unusually well suited to tell Olmsted's tale. Like Olmsted, he is a thinker whose wide-ranging interests find expression through a focus on landscape and design. He writes frequently about the interplay of society, culture, and the shape of the human-constructed environment."
Atlantic Monthly (07/14/1999)
