This looks like just what I am looking for, should anyone be a AAA member you can save 5% with Show your card and save at Barnes and Noble online (must go through the AAA website) and they are giving an additional 5% for pre order, in these times 10% savings a good thing for me! Thanks for the heads up joefrank! Very Happy

Some time back I heard that Martin Page was to publish a book on the cultivation of citrus. Mr. Page, who worked with the Nature Conservancy, and educated in the United Kingdom, is mostly known for his writings on the Peony. I'll buy his book if for no other reason then to add it to my collection of published citrus literature. Hopefully it will not be just a another, me too publication. Might be interesting for forum members to evaluate the content of the book after we have had a chance to read it. - Millet

I ordered it from Amazon, but it is on back order. Not out yet. Should ship in early 2009.

Not received the book yet, but I have read about the books contents. It starts out with citrus history, and how the fruit moved west. I can do without that information, but still look forward to another citrus book. I generally only like the botany aspect of citrus books. The rest such as recipes & etc. I usually just pass over. Timber press still shows the publication date as December 15, 2008. - Millet
