Good tips & examples for the serious Bonsai enthusiast
This is an interesting book in many ways, but it is for the more serious enthusiast rather than someone who just wishes to "have a go", as it were! The tools suggested, for example, are very expensive for the most part - not necessarily the sort of cost you'd want to embark on to begin with. But the photos of trees, as suggestions for the kind of form you might want to aim for, are beautiful - though possibly a bit extreme in some cases, again unless you plan to show your trees. A useful book to have for reference.
