Bonsai Master Class by Kunio Kobayashi

Kunio Kobayashi is without a doubt one of the most accomplished and respected bonsai artists in the world. So much so that the term Bonsai Master undoubtedly applies. You might even say that he is a Master among Bonsai Masters. Now, as good luck would have it, Mr. Kobayashi has just come out with two astonishing new Bonsai books (the other is simply titled Bonsai and is co-authored with Kazuhiko Tajima).
