Title: Many Illustrated Botanical Books
Product review: This large format, beautiful book reproduces a few images from each of the many illustrated botanical books in the Vienna Library. Each book is described briefly in German, English and French. Many are quite rare and seldom available even in the largest libraries in America. The reproductions are high quality and give a good sense of the contents of the books. Anyone interested in botanical illustrations and their history will surely want to own this book. It is amazingly low cost for its quality, like many Taschen publications. My one disappointment is that the library holds few of the treasures of American botanical illustrations, so that they are absent from the book.
