This volume offers a fine array of historical connections between European and Islamic gardens, critiquing those geographic constructs while exploring them in rich detail. It brings innovative lines of Islamic garden research into dialogue with larger and longer-term histories of European gardens. These essays address a major need in the field of garden and landscape history, with new findings and interpretations. --James L. Wescoat Jr., coeditor of Mughal Gardens: Sources, Places, Representations, and Prospects
