Book for Maples Wild Maples of Japan Yano Masayoshi

Book for Maples
We called the author Mr. Masayoshi Yano, and we got some information below from him directly.

It took a whole year for him and cost approx 100,000 dollars to publish this book.

When he asked some publishing companies to publish this book, the answer was 'No' because they assumed this would not get customers interest that much.

However, after this actually came to be published it has received very favorable review in overseas.He said there are much more kinds of maple to introduce that could not be put on this item.

In the preface to this book,Yano Masayoshi says,"I made a point to include as many photos as possible so that the readers will get a handy knowledge of maple cultivars. I will be happy if this book is useful"

Fortunately.this book is written both in Japanese and in English.This item is not on sale in bookstores.There are very few copies available.
