Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

Abolitionist, journalist, administrator, reformer, conservationist, and without question America's foremost landscape architect and urban planner, Frederick Law Olmsted (1822-1903) was a man of unusually diverse talents and interests, and the arc of his life and writings traces the most significant developments of nineteenth century American history. This deluxe Library of America volume collects his writings and is profusely illustrated with a 32-page colour portfolio of Olmsted's design sketches, architectural plans, and contemporary photographs.

Includes bibliographical references and index.
