5.0 out of 5 stars The Art of Bonsai Design by Colin Lewis, Dec 10 2002

Excellent Book for the more advanced Bonsai enthusiast.

As opposed to many entry-level books describing Bonsai species and their care, this book is organized around case studies.
The author expects the reader to know the basics of Bonsai and takes you from there...

I particularly liked the case study based on an Elm stump collected in the wild.

Highly recommended.

This review is from: The Art of Bonsai Design (Hardcover)

Colin Lewis' book is full of clearly written information on "how to do it" or "how not to do it". I have found all kinds of tidbits of info that will greatly enhance my own activities with bonsai. His material on mychorrizae is excellent.

In all, I guess I have found his writing style and his knowledge base combine to provide a book that I will return to often to direct my care and design of my trees. I find this book a real must for anyone beyond the beginners stage.
