Book Synopsis Greenscapes by : Joan Hockaday
Book excerpt: Landscape architect John Charles Olmsted was mentored by Frederick Law Olmsted, designer of New York¿s Central Park. In the early 1900s, the meticulous, visionary protégé brought his famous stepfather¿s pastoral aesthetic to premier parks throughout the Pacific Northwest¿green retreats that still refresh urban souls in Portland, Seattle, and Spokane.
