From Booklist
Gustafson has designed his book for the beginning to intermediate bonsai enthusiast, outlining in straightforward fashion the essentials of the care, creation, and display of these lovely miniature trees. Basic bonsai care changes considerably throughout the four seasons, the author notes, and he offers the necessary seasonal advice by regions. Gustafson stresses the importance of learning how to merely keep a tree alive, no easy task for the beginner. He supplies answers to what he calls 100 basic questions concerning bonsai culture in this book, which contains 402 color and 68 black-and-white illustrations. Gustafson gives a short history of bonsai, along with advice on pruning, potting, training, creating, and displaying them. There's a glossary and a suggested reading list. But this book should be the only one you need. George Cohen --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
