Download The English Park Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
As scenery and places of recreation, parks are a vital part of our well-being. Their existence is almost taken for granted, yet they are often threatened as they suffer from pressures applied by conflicting interests. This book follows their long history and makes a case for the continued care of this tradition both in the preservation of existing parks and the creation of new ones in our cities. Parks have been an inseparable part of British lifestyle for nearly a thousand years. The author draws on literary sources, in prose and verse, and includes remarkable historical documentation as well as largely unpublished illustrations.

Download The Greening of London, 1920–2000 Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The long-term development of public green spaces such as parks, public gardens, and recreation grounds in London during the twentieth century is a curiously neglected subject, despite the fact that various kinds of green spaces cover huge areas in cities in the UK today. This book explores how and why public green spaces have been created and used in London, and what actors have been involved in their evolution, during the course of the twentieth century. Building on case studies of the contemporary boroughs of Camden and Southwark and making use of a wealth of archival material, the author takes us through the planning and creation stages, to the intended (and actual) uses and ongoing management of the spaces. By highlighting the rise and fall of municipal authorities and the impact of neo-liberalism after the 1970s, the book also deepens our understanding of how London has been governed, planned and ruled during the twentieth century. It makes a crucial contribution to academic as well as political discourse on the history and present role of green space in sustainable cities.
