"Wood brings us back to roots of our building heritage," says Seattle landscape architect Daniel Winterbottom. "The differing grains, colors, and expressions inherent in the material give wood a warm lively quality found in few other materials."Winterbottom has written a new book, "Wood in the Landscape: A Practical Guide to Specification and Design." This book goes beyond the how-to books displayed in hardware stores, with a history of the craft, general principles of construction, and pointers for avoiding common problems. Excerpted here with permission of the publisher, John Wiley & Sons, "Wood in the Landscape" serves as both technical manual and design inspiration.
