520    Andrew Jackson Downing's reputation as architect, 
       landscape designer, and author spread far beyond his 
       native Hudson River Valley during the first half of the 
       19th century. But as Adam Sweeting suggests in this 
       elegantly written, illustrated account, Downing's real 
       legacy lies in the philosophical statement he created by 
       melding the literary and building arts with an intensely 
       moralistic outlook. 
520 8  Along with such contemporaries as William Cullen Bryant, 
       Washington Irving, and Frederick Law Olmsted, Downing 
       pursued what Sweeting calls genteel romanticism, an ideal 
       that viewed the confluence of polite literature and 
       graceful dwellings as not just an aesthetic statement, but
       an ethical imperative. 
520 8  This study of a unique coalescence of literature, 
       architecture, and gardening illuminates "the widely held 
       belief that efforts to reform the world began at home, 
       that beautiful and clean houses produced morally beautiful
       and spiritually clean people."
