Review
Chatsworth is a sumptuous book, with oversized pages and beautiful photography; as Alan Titchmarsh explores how each generation have developed the gardens.

Alan’s narration and commentary throughout the book adds a personal insight into the development of the gardens and the people behind it.

Exploring each period of history, with specially commissioned photography by Jonathan Buckley and historic images and memorabilia recently discovered in the estate archives this is a fascinating and unique way to discover the history of Chatsworth and the gardens. 

A beautiful and in-depth study accompanied by outstanding photography from an award winning specialist garden and flower photographer. Highly Recommended!
