Book excerpt: Widely regarded as a master landscape architect, Thomas Mawson (1881-1933) began designing gardens in the 1890s. Though he came from humble beginnings, he was soon the most sought-after garden and landscape designer of the day and could name crowned heads of Europe as his clients and friends, as well as self-made industrialists such as Lord Leverhulme and Andrew Carnegie. He developed his distinctive style in the gardens of England's Lake District, where his genius allowed his creations to open out into the countryside. Now, this full-scale biography examines the brilliance that still endures in his landscapes and designs. Present both in private gardens and civic spaces, Mawson's unique talents have influenced garden designers and landscape architects for nearly a century. His widespread legacy is given the attention it deserves in this beautifully illustrated book by renowned architecture historian Janet Waymark.

Download or read book Lancastrians written by Paul Salveson and published by Hurst Publishers. This book was released on 2023-06-29 with total page 703 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This popular history explores the cultural heritage and identity of Lancashire, stretching from the Mersey to the Lake District. Paul Salveson charts the county’s transformation from a largely agricultural region noted for its religious learning into the Industrial Revolution’s powerhouse, as an emerging self-confident bourgeoisie drove economic growth. This capital boom came with a cultural blossoming, creating today’s Lancashire. Industrialists strongly committed to the arts endowed galleries and museums, producing a diverse world of science, technology, music and literature. Lancashire developed a distinct business culture, but this was also the birthplace of the world co-operative movement, and the heart of democracy campaigns including Chartism and women’s suffrage. Lancashire has generally welcomed incomers, who have long helped to inform its distinctive identity: fourteenth-century Flemish weavers; nineteenth-century Irish immigrants and Jewish refugees; and, more recently, ‘New Lancastrians’ from Asia, Africa and Eastern Europe. This long-overdue book explores contemporary Lancastrian culture, following modern upheavals and Lancashire’s fragmentation compared with its old rival Yorkshire. What future awaits the 6 million people of this rich historic region?

Book Synopsis Unbuilt Calgary by : Stephanie White
Download or read book Unbuilt Calgary written by Stephanie White and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 2012-11-03 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essence of a vibrant, growing, and changing Calgary is captured over the life of its development. Calgary is a typical boom-and-bust town that was first based on ranching and farming, then oil and gas, and now energy. And energy is what its citizens have, whether for skiing, work, or construction. It is a city that leaps ahead eagerly to new futures and rarely looks back., but Calgary can also be an unsentimental city, discarding its ideas, plans, and buildings with ease. Unbuilt Calgary is a survey of 30 projects that were proposed but not realized, schemes that were situated at critical times in Calgary’s development, and proposals that indicated the city’s ambitions through its first 100 years. Unbuilt Calgary looks back to ideas and notions that might have been, and building endeavours that would have changed the shape of the city for better or worse. The 30 critical projects are accompanied by drawings and models to illustrate something of Calgary’s irrepressible exuberance.

Book Synopsis The River Returns by : Christopher Armstrong
Download or read book The River Returns written by Christopher Armstrong and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2014-06-22 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alberta's iconic river has been dammed and plumbed, made to spin hydro-electric turbines, and used to cleanse Calgary. Artificial lakes in the mountains rearrange its flow; downstream weirs and ditches divert it to irrigate the parched prairie. Far from being wild, the Bow is now very much a human product: its fish are as manufactured as its altered flow, changed water quality, and newly stabilized and forested banks. The River Returns brings the story of the Bow River's transformation full circle through an exploration of the recent revolution in environmental thinking and regulation that has led to new limits on what might be done with and to the river.
