註釋
The nine Yorkshire commissions of Humphrey Repton spanned the twenty years between 1790 and 1810. Patrick Eyes and Karen Lynch enlarge the knowledge of his landscape gardening in Yorkshire in general, by offering new insights into these commissions, and, in particular, by reproducing the six extant Red Books that he produced for patrons in the country. Repton is renowned for creating the Red Book, which was his innovatory and unique mode of presenting design proposals in the form of an exquisite, one-off artwork exclusively for his patron. The term 'Red Books' is also used generically to embrace Repton's collective output of reports, whether bound in red Morocco leather or not.
