A book that looks at the mythology, history and evolution of mazes and labyrinths, as well as 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. It also shows how leisure and tourism have created a new craze for mazes, resulting not only in traditional hedge mazes being restored, but also in new types of mazes being built. These include maize mazes, mirror mazes, wood and water mazes and simple garden mazes.
