Summary: excellent beginner's manual
Comment: I am a novice Bonsai enthusiast with little prior horticultural experience. Harry Tomlinson's book is an excellent starting point for practicing the art of Bonsai. There are numerous illustrative photographs throughout the text displaying the basic techniques of tree maintenance. In addition to instruction in the basic skills necessary for successful cultivation there are also in depth descriptions on each of the suitable species delineating appropriate styling, pruning, potting, watering, and propagation methods for each. Overall, a comprehensive first source.

Summary: Very well executed book on Bonsai but.....
Comment: This book is very well executed. The text is clear and understandable, the photographs are brilliantly done. Mr. Tomlinson's explainations are lucid and well reasoned. For a beginner this is a very good book.
Having visited Mr. Tomlinson and his collection I can say that the tree's have progressed considerably since this book was published. This is an excellent "how to" but for pictures of bonsai there are better examples that can be found.
