This is a very hard-to-find book together with Kakuryuan bonsai Collection.I have seldom seen this one for sale even in Japan.
In the English foreword to this book,Kimura Masahiko,a great bonsai master recommedns this book as follows,"Mr.Daizo Iwasaki is well known as a representative figure of bonsai to dmirerrs in the world of bonsai,with whom I have been associated for a long time.
Two years ago,I had a chance to take a look at Mr.Iwasaki's shelves holding the collection.There were a variety of bonsai;from very old trees,to young trees newly brought from the mountains.It was a magnificent view to see hundreds of bonsai,all well cultivated and neatly arranged.
It is a great honor for me to have the opportunity of taking care of his bonsai collection on the occasion of this publication."
