The book covers a wide range of topics, including the history and philosophy of Oriental gardening, the design and construction of gardens, the use of plants and trees, and the art of landscape painting. Chambers draws on his extensive travels in Asia and his knowledge of Chinese and Japanese culture to provide a detailed and authoritative account of this style of gardening. The book is illustrated with numerous engravings and diagrams, which help to illustrate the principles and techniques discussed in the text.
