I am sort of a book freak too. :-) Sort of a collector! I would be
interested in finding out who else that reads this list likes to collect
books (or old aquarium magazines) with useful information on aquatic plants.
Sometimes I have extra (used) copies of out-of print books that I have for
trade.
Regarding the idea of a list, the AGA has already done this in its
"Bibliography for Aquatic Gardeners," a 36-page booklet with 100's of
references (including all of the ones listed above).
