Thank you, I've downloaded this and some of the other publications on that
site. Are there any other pdf format Bonsai references/how-to books? I'd
still also like to hear recommendations for print books. Thanks again!

One of the best is Tom Zane's Intermediate Bonsai Syllabus.

It is **FREE*** Just download it at
http://www.bonsai-bsf.com/intermediate.htm

You could also download Herb Gustafson's tutorial on the IBC website.

One suggestion on books, coming from a book addict--most how-to books are pretty
much alike. Don't go out and spend lots of money on books which repeat the same
things over and over. Splurge on a few books which have good photos of specimen
trees. One I'd suggest is Amy Liang's "Living Art of Bonsai." Another is Deborah
Koreshoff's book, which I have but can't remember the title. This one is good for
styles and detailed sketches.
