Ron Williams’ Landscape Architecture in Canada was recently reviewed in the August 2016 issue of Landscape Architecture Magazine!
Below is an excerpt from Jennifer Reut’s review along with a link to a PDF containing the full review.
“The most humbling thing about Ron Williams’s achievement in his book Landscape Architecture in Canada (McGill-Queen’s University Press, 2014) isn’t that he managed to tell the design story of an entire country clearly and elegantly. Nor is it that he was able to articulate the underlying cultural landscape characteristics of this vast, diverse nation and braid them together with ideas from Europe, Asia, and the United States into a narrative of a distinctly Canadian design history. The most humbling thing is that he did all that while writing simultaneously in French and English for the two editions of the book. The effort nods to Canada’s multiple identities and cultures, embedded in its singular landscape and brought to the forefront.”
