this book is great for reference if you need basic graphics to develop into your own, the graphics file at the end is pretty comphrehensive and easy to flip to for quick ideas. however, the graphics are extremely dated, drawn with conventions that would look strange in today’s landscape drawings.

|Landscape Designer,
This book is used as a text book at several univerities and Community colleges. It is a basic text that alows a student to learn to draw graphics and symbols. The excersize in the back of the book are very helpful when first learning to draft graphics. It does not address computer graphics. If you want to produce those kinds of plans it is best to take a course in computer graphics. When first learning to draw graphics one has to start somewhere. This book does a great job!

|Wow! What a great book, and working tool for the desiger.,
Loved this book. I am a self-taught landscape designer. This book brings home to me one of the reasons I am self-taught. I am one of those people that learn better when left alone with a good instruction manual. This is one of those books that gets right to the point and covers just about everything. It’s packed with page after page of graphics, and just enough text to explain what is not obvious. And for 15.95, such a deal!
