Speaking of *The World of Irises,* has AIS any plans  to develop and publish 
a current, comprehensive, reference  volume along this line any time soon? 
 
There was such a project at one time, but it was set aside because-- it  was 
said-- there were several new books on the subject so  demand would be too 
low. I thought that logic flawed at the time,  but perhaps there was more to the 
story than one heard.
 
The books that are out there now do not come close to doing what  needs to be 
done, when they are not downright unreliable. This gets to be  a real problem 
when one is trying to effect a little public  education. 
 
And kindly don't mention *Basic Iris Culture* to me. That thing  is too basic 
even for my cat. 
 
Cordially,
