Book Description
In Magical Paths leading expert Jeff Saward looks at the mythology and evolution of mazes and labyrinths. He examines how today's land artists and garden designers have recreated labyrinths in both public and private garden spaces that reflect the modern search for inner peace. At the same time, mass leisure and tourism have brought about a new "craze" for mazes, resulting not only in traditional hedge mazes being reconstructed but also in new types of mazes being built all over the world - from complex maize mazes, mirror mazes, wood and water mazes to simple garden turf mazes. With more mazes and labyrinths being built than at any time in their history, this is a timely overview of their visual excitement, power to challenge and unique inspiration.
