Landscape in Sight Looking at America John Brinckerhoff Jackson, Helen Lefkowitz Horowitz, J.B. Jackson

Focusing not on nature but on landscape -- land shaped by human presence -- Jackson invites us to see the everyday places of the American countryside and city. This appealing anthology, illustrated with Jackson's sketches and photographs, brings together his most famous essays, significant but less well known writings, articles originally published under pseudonyms, a bibliography of his landscape writings, and introductions that place his work in context.
