PIONEERS OF AMERICAN LANDSCAPE DESIGN Index Note: Following the publication of Pioneers of American Landscape Design, LALH editors realized that a com- prehensive index to the book would be a useful resource for readers searching for places, individuals not represented by specific essays, or connective themes. With this in mind, we commissioned an index com- prising more than 2,500 entries, to be available as a downloadable document from our website. This project was initiated with a gift from LALH Trustee Elizabeth Barlow Rogers and completed with generous donations of time and editorial acumen from Mary Bellino. © 2008 by Library of American Landscape History Italicized page numbers refer to in-text illustrations.
