Critics Review
“This book is a very useful, heavily illustrated account of trees and tree-planting in British cities during the nineteenth century. It combines recent research on the history of gardening and arboriculture, as well as urban and environmental approaches.”—Peter Clark, University of Helsinki, in EuropeNow
“Paul Elliot has fascinating things to say on tree-lined streets, cemeteries, hospitals, and other green spaces.”—Peter Clark, University of Helsinki, in EuropeNow
