This is the most comprehensive - by far - of all koi books. Dr. Axelrod and his co-authors manage to bridge the gaps between all of the different koi types being bred in the world today, from the purely classical colors and shapes of the traditional Japanese koi right through the Israeli and American modifications on the basic Japanese theme: the new American-bred long-finned koi is just one example. Apart from all of the beautiful full-color photos - all coated with plastic to give then added vitality and durability - and the very practical considerations involved in setting up a koi pond and keeping its inhabitants in good health, the book also contains fascinating reading dealing with the history of cultivated carp dating all the way back to the first century B.C. Beautifull as well as immensely thorough, useful and interesting, 'The completely illustrated guide to Koi for your pond' is a milestone in koi literature. Meer info
