This book revives a time when houses fit for a prince were built for trees, a time when the thoughtful beauties of our French gardens, which today delight local walkers and tourists, existed only for their owners.

It tells the history of the orange, the myths surrounding it, and the design of orangeries for the nobility in Paris and the surrounding area. IN FRENCH!
