    The book Cavendish Encyclopedia of Pruning and Training by Christopher Brickell and David Joyce, Cavendish Books 1996 is out of print. Is it published by anyone else under a new name? If not, can a book of similar quality be recommended?

    Tony,
    There is also a listing for the American Hort. Society Pruning & Training by Brickell & Joyce in the latest American Nurseryman Horticultural Books, etc. catalogue. Their website is www.amerinursery.com.
    Good luck, that is the best pruning book.
