Read accounts from visitors to England in the Middle Ages and Early Modern Period, and you'll see how they heap praise on it for being a land wholly tamed by man. The rolling green fields, hedgerows, pasture and row-upon-row of fruits and vegetables were an admiration, likewise the wall-less cities and the fact that a common man could up and go to London or Bristol or Norwich on a whim, safe in the knowledge that his home was secure. This kind of thinking was what spread to America through the Pilgrims and Puritans, and why they wanted to turn their newfound Eden into a land of human industry.
