Once listed, this will be the Only signed copy for sale anywhere on the Internet. I believe it will be the only signed copy of any of the books Franklin Hamilton Hazlehurst wrote or edited. The inscription is on the half-title page. It reads: 'To Mr. and Mrs. George Kellogg, May this inspire you to create a small Versailles for the retirement years. F. Hamilton Hazlehurst, Nashville, March 17, 1981.' As you can see from the photos, the covers of the book are in very nice condition. I don't see any soiling. There is light rubbing at the two bottom corners and a little bit of the same on the bottom edges and at the bottom edge of the spine, all of that smooth. There is a tiny crease just above and to the right of 'Hazlehurst' on the spine. The area to the right of the spine on the front cover puffs up a little bit, but the covers are not bowed at all. The book is square and solidly bound from cover to cover. There are no cracks or spaces to be found between any of the facing pages or between the covers and any of the pages. The inside covers and end papers are a light green. They are very clean and free of wear. The interior of the book is in very good condition. I didn't see any soiling. However, there is a little bit of mild dust staining at the top and middle page edges and here or there a little of it peeks over the top or middle page edge. That's more the case with a few of the early pages including the signed page. You may or may not be able to pick it up in the photo of the signed page. I haven't taken the photo yet. Nonetheless, when it occurs it is not very conspicuous. The pages are in very good condition. I didn't see any significant creasing. There are no markings. There are no attachments. And with the exception of the author's signed inscription, no one has written their name or anything else anywhere in the book. The dust jacket can be seen in the first few photos. It's very clean. I've rated it only Good because there is a thin loss at the top edge of the rear cover. There are also a few tiny tears off the top edge of the spine and rear cover. There's a speck-sized spot scuff at the front top right corner of the front cover. The flaps look very good. They are very clean. There is one tiny tear off the top edge of the rear flap. The jacket is not priced or clipped. I've always had it in a fitted protective cover. From the dust jacket: 'Landscape gardening in seventeenth-century France was as vital to the life of the age as architecture, sculpture, and painting. In their formality and symmetry, the gardens were the counterpart of the structures they were so carefully designed to embellish. The manicured landscapes were true products of the French rational intellect, an intellect that demanded a Nature controlled and dominated by human reason. Gardens of Illusion, the first book-length study of Andre Le Nostre to appear in almost twenty years, provides important new insights into the practice of landscape gardening not only in France but in the Western world.' 'Franklin Hamilton Hazlehurst was born on November 6, 1925 in Spartansburg, North Carolina. He attended Princeton University as an undergraduate. He received a Master of Fine Arts cum laude from Princeton in 1952 and in 1956 his PhD degree from Princeton as well. He was an assistant at The Frick Museum, New York City, during 1956-1957 and an associate professor art history at the University of Georgia between 1957 and 1963 when he joined the faculty of Vanderbilt University. He was a professor fine arts at Vanderbilt from 1965 to 1995 and a professor of fine arts emeritus since 1995. He was also the Chairman of the fine arts department at Vanderbilt beginning in the 1960s and through to 1990. He was the President of the Southeastern College Art Conference and Chairman of the Third International Colloquium on the Landscape Architecture at Dumbarton Oaks.', Books<
