I noticed a bit of a back and forth on the new Calochortus book from Timber Press back in August, but I have not seen any further comments or discussion about our book. I feel like a bit of a voyeur, BUT As one of the authors, I obviously have a vested interest here, but both Ron and I would appreciate feedback on the book. Further information including the "Look Inside" feature has been added to the Amazon.com site, and for those of you interested in more photos of Calochortus, please see the web sites: http://www.flowershots.net/INDEX.html and http://picasaweb.google.com/navbo123/ I hope that those of you interested in this genus find the information in the book useful.
