PUBLISHER'S NOTE

This book could only have resulted from the combination of two authors which it happily found,- a Japanese authority on bonsai with long teaching experience and a Western student of the art with the ability to anticipate the Western reader's questions and problems and to describe an intricate subject in lucid English Collaboration on a technical book, however, is never easy; and in this case the difficulties have been compounded by the fact that the authors suddenly found themselves separated by the oceans and seas-to say nothing of canals-between Japan and North Africa. Fortunately, the book had already been written, but there still remained the tasks of final editing, choosing photographs, drafting line drawings, preparing captions, proofreading, indexing, and coordinating all the various parts. In these circumstances the publishers have had to assume more responsibility and make more decisions than were rightfully theirs. They must, then, thank both authors for patience and understanding, and must also take upon themselves the blame for any acts of commission or omission which do Injustice to the authors' intentions.
