4.0 out of 5 stars Landscape Designer, Mar 5 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Landscape Graphics (Paperback)
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!

1.0 out of 5 stars registered LA in 10 states, Sep 26 2000
This review is from: Landscape Graphics (Paperback)
If you are a student of landscape architecture, it would be in your best interest to stay away from this book. It is truly outdated. The graphics here are mediocre at best (at the time of publication). Don't waste your money or time on this style of drawing. Unless Mr. Reid publishes a new and updated How-to book, I would think that this book will be out of print (hopefully soon). It is critical that students learn to draw and draw well, both by hand and computer. This book will not help in either endeavor. If you as a student of landscape architecture use this book to learn to draw the landscape, don't count on working as a Landscape Architect upon graduation. You will be lucky to find a job as a janitor in the office building of a second-rate 2person; design-build; landscape design office.

3.0 out of 5 stars useful but dated..., May 9 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Landscape Graphics (Paperback)
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.
