Hi Paul, I have this book. I bought it 3 years ago. It is a very nice book in format. It comes in a sleeve like "the Best of Bonsai Europe", and it is full of pictures. Very nice binding, and it is well made. The only problem is the picture quality. For every good photo, there are 5 poor photo's. Some seem to have been over sized and they blurred.

The photo essays are pretty good though, with lots of step by steps on a variety of trees. I would say it is worth the money for the technique alone. Don't buy it for the photo's, you will be dissapointed. ( some are good though, and the ones that are good are real good).

Lots of nice pots by Certre, and maybe yours will be autographed, mine was.

Hope that helps, Al
