Fantastic book!
I purchased 4 copies from Stone Lantern in the USA a few years ago. They went to the BSV club library and people who placed personal orders. It is a fairly recent publication and I would be surprised if any of the owners would part with them.

I bought my copy from Direct from Dan Robinsons Garden shop, http://www.elandangardens.com/gnarlybra ... nches.html
They published it of their own bat so I'd rather see them get the profit (or at least break even) mine even came signed!

Not your average bonsai book, great pics, and inspirational esp for those into wild collecting, lots about Dan, his techniques and his journey around bonsai, a must for those looking for something different!!

Thanks for posting that link! Much appreciated, I think I might purchase a copy directly.

Excellent book, most inspiring. I got mine years ago from a local nursery who said they weren't going to stock it any more. Maybe get it from Dan...
