Garrett Eckbo (1910-1996) was one of the most highly respected and influential American modernist landscape architects. He worked assiduously to overthrow the Beaux-Arts system of landscape design and to develop an approach that would address the social and economic challenges of the modern world. Eckbo rejected the centrality of nature as a psychological and spiritual source of inspiration, criticizing the palliative introduction of nature into cities in parks designed by Olmsted and other nineteenth-century landscape architects and arguing instead for a scientific method that would provide a

CHAPTER I THE HOUSE OF ARIOLAND DAY broke hopefully over the old house of Arioland. The cock from his high perch on the stable dyke sent a gay challenge across hill and dale. To him in another moment responded his brother down at the Lincolns. Nether Aird on its broomy knowe took up the chime, the sound diminishing as it receded, till that which issued clarion-clear and defiant from the farm-yard of Arioland had become delicate as the tinkling of fairy bells ere it reached the dim blue borders of the strath. lVlost hopefully of all dawned the day of the 2 I st of August, 18-, in the Ettle, bea

A WI NO sprang high in the west, like a wave of unreasonable happiness, and tore eastward across England, trailing with it the frosty scent of forests and the cold intoxication of the sea. In a Inillion holes and corners it refreshed a man like a flagon, and astonished him like a blow.

The great English philosopher, John Stuart Mill, has somewhere observed that mankind cannot be too often reminded that there was once a man of the name of Socrates. That is true; but still more important is it to remind mankind again and again that a man of the name of Jesus Christ once stood in their midst. The fact, of course, lias been brought home to us from our youth up; but unhappily it cannot be said that public instruction in our time is calculated to keep the image of Jesus Christ before us in any impressive way, and make it an inalienable possession after our school-days are over and
