Customer Reviews

Somewhat disappointed3
I bought this book as a present for my wife who is a Monet devotee. I guess I should have looked at the book description a little closer. I was expecting a normal size picture book like all her other Monet books.
The format was disappointing and not nearly as nice as the many other garden books on the subject.
