Fern Grower’s Manual Revised and Expanded Edition; color plates are worthless by being printed in bl

I am very disappointed by the print quality of the book I received. I suspect a stack of copies destined for the trash were sold off to discount sellers. Sadly, a second rate printing should have been thrown away. It does a disservice to the authors of the book and its readers.

Great book!

Well written and easy to read and understand. Plentiful color photos. Everything I need to know to propagate and maintain healthy, facinating ferns.Fern Grower's Manual: Revised and Expanded Edition

The Best Fern Manual Available

This book does exactly what its title suggests. It provides very useful and simple information on ferns and their cultivation. It is not a wordy book though it has well over 500 pages. It gets straight to the essentials of ferns and their requirements. The detailed drawings are clear and very useful in helping fern enthusiasts easily identify different species of ferns. i would have loved however to see a few more pages of color photographs of ferns and more fern entries but I am sure this well written book will be updated in a few years time. The Fern Growers Manual is the best available manual for fern growers. Buy it and enter the other world of ferns - a satisfying experience for all who venture in.
