Disappointed

I buy books for botanical illustrations. It is part of being an artist and using detailed illustrations to learn plants. When it says "1900 plants described 200 illustrated in color" and there is a beautiful illustration on the front cover, one would think the illustrations will be beautiful inside and there will be at least 110+ pages of illustrations.. Very few images and they are low quality photographs, small and crammed 6 to a page. That means every 8 to 20th page of small text has a page with 6 small squares on it with photos referring to something in the pages you just read. completely useless to me. Going in recycling. What a waste.
