Media Reviews
A beayutifully illustrated guide to the magnificent gardens in Surrey. Lady Kew's stunning blend of natural beauty, classical architecture and manicured planting has been joyously captured by the camera of Joanna Jackson, season to season. If you haven't been to Kew, this book will surely spur you to go; if you've been before, it will make you go again. Outdoor Photography
