Lots of obscure juno irises are illustrated, so all is forgiven. The editing of many hort. books could use better editing, Jim. I am an editor by profession, mostly of textbooks, and now do it entirely freelance. I talked with representatives of Timber Press once about the possibility of taking on some projects for them. I was told that they'd love to have that luxury, but since the market for a single title is relatively small, they simply couldn't afford me. I have no reason to believe that this isn't also true for most hort. titles. Bill Lee ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com/.
