Here in New Zealand we don't have the same competition and discount, the
majority of people in the US enjoy.
All Timber Press publications (likie those) are available to members of the
NARGS at a substantial discount through the Society's Book Service. If you
buy a lot of plant books, you can pay for your $25 per year membership ($30
overseas) with the savings alone.
See http://www.nargs.org/ or write to the Executive Secretary, Jacques Mommens,
P.O. Box 67, Millwood, NY 10546.
I remember that when I visited New Zealand I was amazed at the high prices
in the bookstores and assumed it was due to shipping costs or a high
tariff, though few democratic countries impose high tariffs on books.
