In Paths and Walkways, Hazel White shows how to create a marvelous garden that invites all who enter to linger, stroll, and unwind in sun-dappled luxury.

You don't need to be a master gardener or spend a lot of money to transform your outdoor space into a slice of paradise. With these easy instructions, any bit of land can become a fantastic alfresco retreat. Here are complete "recipes" for classic stone and gravel walks as well as fun contemporary paths by some of today's most innovative designers - all explained so simply anyone can build them |
