Gardens of Historic Charleston invites readers to venture beyond these garden gates and to experience the allure and seclusion of Charleston's celebrated town gardens.James R. Cothran, and landscape architect who has been fascinated by Charleston gardens for more than four decades, recounts the history of horticulture in a city where small-space gardening has reached the zenith of refinement and ingenuity.

Cothran explains the principles inherent in all Charleston gardening--integration of house and garden, maximum use of limited space, enclosure by protective walls, and the creative use of ornamental plants--as he offers a wellspring of ideas for planning, creating, or improving one's own garden.…
