Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Garden Cities in Theory and Practice, Vol. 1
Earl Grey in a recent speech said: 'i can well remember receiving Mr. Howard's book in 1898, and the thrill of hope and pleasure I experlenced as, under his guidance, I visited for a few happy hours the delightful realms of his Utopia but I can also well remember the sigh with which I put away his book as out lining a scheme too far remote, as I then thought, from the field of practical politics to engage the serious attention of business men. I am happy to say I have changed my views. Having considered the scheme from every standpoint, my early scepticism has evaporated, and I now confess myself to be a convinced believer, given wise management, in the practicability of his plan.'
