"This is a truly handsome volume with its front embossed cover, colorful end papers, and elegant artwork." ~ Chicago Botanic Garden "Like pinned butterflies, each finely rendered specimen floasts vulnerably on the page, completely decontextualized." ~ I.D. "This spring, if you are dreaming of building a summerhouse in the country, here is the perfect book to inspire you to get out the tape measure and drafting paper." ~ The New York Observer, "This is a truly handsome volume with its front embossed cover, colorful end papers, and elegant artwork." ~Chicago Botanic Garden "Like pinned butterflies, each finely rendered specimen floasts vulnerably on the page, completely decontextualized." ~I.D.

    Very happy with this purchase and seller, not least for the condition of the book and the robust packaging. One relatively minor quibble - not the fault or responsibility of the seller - is with DHL and their Australian affiliate, Aramex, the former whom seemingly sent this item around most of America before finally dispatching the item to Australia. Aramex were also tardy not least in updating the tracking advice in a timely manner. However, alls well that ends well. Cheers.
