Inspirational with excellent instructions and drawings. June 18, 2001
40 out of 40 found this review helpful
This book is a must for those who want to build a water feature but have no previous experience in this area. It is well laid out, informative and inspirational. As a garden design student I have consulted many books on this subject but felt this was the one I should buy.

At a visit to a friend's house this morning, I was really amazed seeing the beautiful garden he had with small pools spread around with many different sorts of plants on the sides. When I asked him how he succeded in creating such a nice garden, he went inside and came back with a book titled "The Water Gardener" written by ANTHONY ARCHER-WILLS, JOHN BROOKES. I am back at home now and ordering for a copy of this particular book. Thanks for it.

There are many books on the market that will explain the ins and outs and various pitfalls of building your own water garden, but I have yet to come across one so well compiled, lavishly illustrated and keenly written as this one. Every conceivable water feature available has been utilised and explained in order to make this book a pleasure for both the expert and the beginner alike. It comes as no surprise to learn that the author has designed and built over 2,000 water features, and acts as a consultant on "water gardening". Every step essential to the creation of a beautiful pond and its surroundings is laid out, step by step. The accompanying illustrations and photographs are outstanding, and each section details suitable plants; aquatic, marginal and more. I wish I had had this book to hand when I ventured forth into the garden one day, spade in hand, with the grandiose idea of a garden pond and bog garden!
