Sir Ebenezer Howard envisioned a utopian urban landscape where humanity exists in perfect harmony with the natural world, a concept detailed in his seminal publication Garden Cities of To-morrow. This influential work sparked the Garden City movement, leading to the establishment of several such communities across Great Britain in the early twentieth century. His ideas offered a blueprint for a more integrated and balanced way of living, merging urban development with ecological principles.
Sir Ebenezer Howard (1850-1928) was the founder of the Garden City Association and believed that new towns incorporating the benefits of country living were the solution to overcrowding and poor conditions in modern industrial towns. This volume, first published in 1898, introduces his utopian vision of the Garden City.
