Bromeliaceae of Ecuador
or Jewels of the Jungle
by Jose Manzanares

It's main purpose seems to be to provide an immense amount of information. But it is done with a style that makes it beautiful as well. I somehow believe that information is paramount, beauty was a secondary purpose.

The page illustrated here is typical of the type and breadth of the information about each of the 78 species noted in this first volume of a trilogy.

The left margin is truncated . I did not want to break the binding of this beautiful book to scan it!
