And I further refer you to Robert's full exposition on the
History of Bonsai. It represents an amazing amount of work
and dedication on his part. Go he

I truly hope that this work exists somewhere that is more
permanent than a web page. It would be a shame if some
electronic disturbance (or some other disaster) caused this
work to vanish.

I know better than to assume it would make a salable book --
or at least a money-making book -- but it would be nice if
it had a permanent home like that.

Well done, Robert! And thanks to the Phoenix Bonsai Society
for hosting it.
