Great information.
I love the beauty of a well-done Bonsai and always wanted to know how it was done. Yes, I have watched youtube but having a book too is awesome. I learned a great deal about this art form from this book. I enjoyed reading the history and the benefits of creating a Bonsai. I had a friend that would create these critters and I always marvel at the work she did. If you have not been blessed with children that will teach you patience then try this you have to have the patience to do these craft. Excellent book, great pictures, and I am so happy I picked this book up. I did receive a free copy of this book and voluntarily chose to review it.

This book was packed with information. It needed diagrams. it is more focus on growing a bonsai from scratch than caring for one from a nurse. The style is uneven ranging from very formal to colloquial tones and using patronising phrases. There are better books on the market. I bought this from a second hand online and it wasn't clear it was a self published copy. Should have been edited by a 3rd party

Very general. Few examples with pictures.

Interesting and easy to follow.
I rated it with 5 stars because it is very informative for the beginner bonsai enthusiast. From picking, to growing, to sculpting.
