Description:... The Laskett is an intimate history of the garden Roy Strong made with his wife, Julia Trevelyan Oman--the largest formal garden created in the country since 1945. This personal book is the tale of a marriage as much as the tale of a garden, as into the Laskett they etched their own biographies, including many of the people who have crossed their lives and are commemorated within it.
