Question on new book
Has anybody yet seen the book advertised here?
http://pup.princeton.edu/titles/7595.html It looks fairly attractive, but I am dubious about buying as it covers quite a large area: it might be of too general a nature for my taste. PvR |

http://pup.princeton.edu/titles/7595.html It looks more like a reference for the plant hobbyist, like Exotica. something I would ask for in the library, rather than spend money on. Iris, Central NY, Zone 5a, Sunset Zone 40 "If we see light at the end of the tunnel, It's the light of the oncoming train." Robert Lowell (1917-1977) |

http://pup.princeton.edu/titles/7595.html Iris Cohen schreef It looks more like a reference for the plant hobbyist, like Exotica. Something I would ask for in the library, rather than spend money on. + + + In such cases I tend to look at the pictures. If it has good pictures it is worth having, if not it is something to go to the library for, and make the occasional photocopy of. I assume Exotica is something like Hortica, which I have got here (somewhere) and wish I did not have (even though I got it at a clearance sale): the pictures are really lousy (terribly small). So I am hoping somebody actually saw this new book. PvR |
