There's plenty on the net if you know where to look ;-)

Kev Willson has styled and carved many excellent Yews, there are more on
his site. Just take a look around.
There's a nice Yew history at
http://www.snowlantern.ukf.net/PBtrees.html?PBYEW1
and one from my own site

Subject: [IBC] yew bonsai
I have looked around on the net and can't find a whole lot on
yew bonsai.
Does anyone have any good info or a website pertaining to them?
Believe it or not, the world does not revolve around the World
Wide Web.
Try:
Bonsai Today #1, #77 & #79
Bonsai Magazine for 1-99, 9-02 and 11-02
and
International Bonsai #2 in 2002
Those are just the magazines _I_ have. Each magazine probably
has other issues with Taxus material. If you know someone with
"The Indices" ask them to check for you.
And then there are books: Tomlinson's and Giorgi's overviews of
basic bonsai lore both have stuff on Taxus. Adams' "The Art of
Bonsai" has quite a bit on Taxus. Colin Lewis' "Survival Manual"
has material on Taxus , as does Owen's "Growing Classic Bonsai"
to name just a few. If you don't have these, get them. Many
libraries carry them, but it's always nice to own them. Taxus is
covered in many other bonsai books, too. These are just the ones
that come to mind.
