5.0 out of 5 stars Sentinels of the Desert, March 25, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: The Great Saguaro Book (Hardcover)

If you are at all interested saguaros, this is a great book to start with. The unusual book size (4 1/2" x 10 1/2") nicely showcase the photos and accentuate the towering size of the cacti.

3.0 out of 5 stars Look elsewhere, April 24, 2000

reader (United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Great Saguaro Book (Hardcover)

Despite it's unusual layout and artful cover, this book comes across as a personal photo album. The snippets of saguaro lore do not justify the relatively high price, and the photography, while good, is defeated by the vertical format. Perhaps a better investment would be Carl Hodge's "All About Saguaros", which is referenced in the bibliography.
