The book arrived promptly and in excellent condition. It is filled with gorgeous pictures. Good luck trying to find the orchids featured.
But the thing that fails to satisfy: the information offered is a brief description of only the most basic kind for absolute beginners. Little if anything is offered you can’t find on the web. It is a very attractive coffee table book. But even for a beginner I would suggest something with more depth of substance.
