"Southern Africa is the center of "Gladiolus" distribution, and this monumental book is a fitting companion to the authors' earlier work on the tropical species. It is a major work of scholarship, and its superb illustrations are masterpieces of botanical art. Thanks to the support of several foundations, the book has been produced to the very highest standard, and at a remarkable value."
