Monastic Gardens by Michael Hales
A rare look at the integral role a garden plays in the life of a monastery. Here, gardening is not undertaken for decorative purposes alone. Instead, fruits and vegetable flavour meals, and carefully tended refuges are the perfect spot to pray. Throughout the book, members of different orders discuss the divine purpose of gardening and its symbolic significance in Christian faiths.
Mick Hales is an internationally acclaimed garden and architectural photographer who has been the sole photographer of eleven books and has contributed to several others. Born in England, he moved to the United States in 1984, and now lives wit his wife in Columbia County, New York.
