New Bonsai Book: Bonsai Inspirations

Post by HarryHarrington »

(My apologies if I am starting this topic in an inappropriate forum)
To celebrate the first 10 years of my website, I am proud to announce publication of the first book from Bonsai4me, 'Bonsai Inspirations', out in just two weeks time on February 14th.
Written by myself over the past 18 months, the 268 page, A4-sized book is divided into 15 chapters. Rather than the typical encyclopedic format of many bonsai books, each chapter of Bonsai Inspirations covers the progression and development of a bonsai over a period of many years, illustrating in great depth how impressive and majestic bonsai can be created from humble beginnings.
For further details and to purchase your copy of the book please visit http://www.bonsai4me.com/bonsai-inspira ... Index.html (please note: Bonsai Inspirations is only available through Bonsai4me.com)
After many requests, I can now announce ALL copies now contain an insert certificate signed by myself to celebrate the First Edition and these will be issued with every book purchased before the end of February.
