A much needed book on autumn flowers

I found this book written by an expert plantswoman on growing perennial flowers extremely worthwhile read. Good photos and down to earth comments on the subject of late flowering perennials. Excellent directory on the plants, and some very new plant introductions mentioned. Recommended.
