Description
 
In the 1890s America's millionaires were looking for ways to display their new wealth and the acquisition of a grand house with an equally grand garden became their passion. By the turn of the century and over the next four decades, estate gardens ranging in size from dozens to thousands of acres swept the nation.

The Golden Age of American Gardens surveys more than 500 of these remarkable private estates and their illustrious owners. From the du Pont of Delaware to the Huntingtons of California, from Minnesota's John Pillsbury to Houston's Ima Hogg, these are the people who became legends of our social history. We learn details of their flamboyant private and public lives and of the gossip, parties, politics and economies that characterized the period.

CONDITION:Hard Cover with Dust Jacket, DJ shows light wear, heavy coffee table sized book, 408 pages.
