内容説明
Dogs are the soft underbelly of every gardener," says English landscape designer Tim Reese. In fact, gardeners are often as crazy about their dogs as they are about their flowers, and would not dream of tending their beds or inspecting their acreage without the companionship of at least one four-legged friend. In Dogs in Their Gardens, noted garden authority Page Dickey takes us on an insider's tour of 20 of the most charming and imaginative gardens in America and abroad, with man's best friend as reliable host. A classic Frederick Law Olmsted design at Manchester-by-the-Sea, Bunny Williams's stylish potager, a tropical garden surrounding a New England pool - plus the creations of Frank Cabot, Robert Dash, and other esteemed gardeners - are explored not only as fine examples of garden design, but as the sanctuaries of the dogs who call them home. The author has trained her camera on an assortment of garden-loving dogs - including black labradors, English mastiffs, standard poodles, and Jack Russell terriers. Shown contemplating the day, stretched out across a garden path, or bounding joyously down a panel of lawn, these dogs delight in the earthy pleasures their gardens offer and invite us to do the same. In this appealing volume, Page Dickey has created an intimate portrait of beguiling canines and their distinctive floral domains, neither of which would be complete without the other.

英語の本文を存分に楽しむことはできないわたしですが、自宅の庭（とても恵まれている環境）でくつろぐ彼らの姿を大いに楽しむことはできます。ことに後ろ姿は淋しげだったり、愉しげだったり．．後ろ姿がこんなに表情豊かだったとは．．．キュートな写真集です。彼らの写真とともに飼い主、住まい、犬種、名前などが紹介されています。表紙は黄緑にピンクの濃淡から成り全体に色彩も柔らか、犬好きなかたには嬉しい贈り物になるでしょう

I liked this because of the dogs, not the gardens
2002/3/10
形式:ハードカバー|Amazonが確認した購入
"Dogs in the Gardens of the Rich and Famous" is probably a more descriptive title for this little book, but that's a minor distraction; the dogs are the stars of this book. The photos are without exception excellent and the accompanying text is good, especially when it focuses on the dogs. It was comforting to see the odd mutt featured in these pages, many adopted from Humane Societies. The passages about the pleasures of being with dogs while in the garden, particularly the ones pertaining to a dog named "May", make this book special. The book is printed on quality stock in a pleasing layout.

Every Garden Deserves a Dog
2004/11/21
形式:ハードカバー
Page Dickey is not one to favor animal types. Known as an authority on gardens, she has selected gardens of homes across the country to photograph - gardens that just happen to be the homes of a wide variety of Dogs! (Her other similar book gives the position of honor to Cats). In this series of garden vistas Dickey focuses on a wide assortment of garden styles while keeping her photographer's eye attuned to the resident dog of each garden. The combination of running commentary about the plants and trees, paths and resting places, with observations about how dogs can enhance a garden's atmosphere makes for a readable and visually delightful little book. A fine gift for those who love either gardens, or dogs, or hopefully who love the combination! Grady Harp, November 2004
