Books by Ethan Carr

Essential reading for all who are concerned with protecting gradually diminishing cultural landscapes. In his final analysis of Cape Cod National Seashore, Ethan Carr poses provocative questions about how to balance the conservation of natural and cultural resources in regions threatened by increasing visitation and development.

Tracing the history of landscape park design from British gardens up through the city park designs of Frederick Law Olmsted, this title places national park landscape architecture within a larger historical context. It examines specific national park policies and the historical contexts that shaped them.
