Received my copy today and what an amazing reference book. Wow, no book I own is as well done and every page has me anxious to get to the next! Mr. Hessler was gracious enough to sign the book and unprompted he mentions my 656 collection. Not sure how that word got out as I didn't think it was so well known. It was very gracious! I believe I have seen this Vignette before but pictures do not do it justice! WOW it is beautiful!!!

Now I have to start saving for the international version!!!

Ditto on reading and rereading! Headed back to China soon so I am go to have plenty of time for it!

Really wish I had gotten both at the same time but will wait a little for the 2nd.

Thanks ~ D

These books look intriguing. Were these special orders? Is there a way to order these books direct from author/publisher? Is there a link or info online regarding them? ISBN? I noticed a 2005 edition online but was wondering if these are newer/revised editions?
