Yet behind this world of perfume and spectacle lay a striking social shift. In a domain long defined by men, women began to play an active role, influencing Humphry Repton and other designers to realize their visions of pleasure grounds. These gardens became stages for alfresco entertainments, displays of taste, and private encounters alike. This book offers the first sustained account of ornamental gardening in Regency Britain, revealing a vivid, feminine-inflected landscape where horticulture, fashion, and sociability intertwined--and where artistry still resonates two centuries later.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Timothy Mowl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1836392486\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781836392484\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Reaktion Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/25\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs","brand":"Timothy Mowl","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48748362891519,"sku":"9781836392484","price":49.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/all-around-is-fairy-ground-timothy-mowl-9781836392484","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
