I am  also an editor of (mostly academic reference) books and have done 
several  projects for Timber Press, and I asked them if I could have a pass 
over  Janis's book -- and said I would do it FOR FREE -- because I knew his 
ad  hoc English would give a nonspecialist a lot of trouble. The press  
(recently bought by a larger publisher) ignored my  offer.



Their loss, Jane. And Janis's too. I met Janis in 2002 when he was the  
keynote speaker at the American Daffodil Society convention in Cincinnati, which  I 
co-chaired. He's a fine gentleman and not at all difficult to  understand.
 
The attitude of the new owners is not particularly surprising.
