If you're looking for a slim volume with lots of photos of lilies from before 1998, this is the book for you. Half of the book is taken up with lists of species of lilies with some photos of them. There are just a few pages on planting, growing, and propagating lilies. This book might be good for a raw beginner or someone who is more interested in learning about lilies than in planting them, but you can find more up-to-date information online for free. I found it a disappointment. It looks like the author rewrote this book and published in 2014, so that might be more useful.
