You can count on Sunset for good coverage of a topic. This book has the following chapters:
*An Introduction to Succulents and Cactus
*Starting a Collection
*Caring for Cactus and Succulents
*Indoors...A Variety of Uses
*Landscaping Ideas
*Propagating Techniques

Ample photos (black and white) supplement the text, and simple line drawings show the steps for "How to pot a cactus" and "How to graft a cactus."
