Using Leberecht Migge (modernist landscape architect) as a base, Haney creates a comprehensive history of German ecological design. Linking with modern ideas of "green" design, this is a unique look at how one man changed the way planning could unite house and garden.
"...the book can already be confidently described as the standard work of garden art research." - Sehepunkte
"David Haney's analysis of [Migge's] work and theory is thorough and well researched, with no source left unexplored. Not only does he achieve his aim of setting Migge's work in the context of modernism, but explains his tortuous pursuit of a third way between modernism and conservatism, which Migge more or less achieved." - Dr. Janet Waymark, Landscape Journal
