I located a copy of this book via inter-library loan. If you only want to
browse the book, I recommend this route. I have a couple pages on this
method of pruning at the following link:

>Hi, where does one get thgis book??

It's long been out of print, so it's only available used:
If you start at www.booksold.com - you can search ALibris and AbeBooks (both
multilocation retailers. Amazon generally sells used books also, but they
didn't
appear to have it. Personally I would buy one of the lowest costs you can
find, as
you actually plan to use the book and aren't getting for "collecting"
purposes. But to
each his own.

I'm new to trying Lorette on a small scale (one Espalier), but from talking
to others,
I understand there are certain caveats to it.

1) I works better for pears than for apples
(works for apples, just not as well)
2) It works better in a Mediterreanean type climate that an East Coast type
climate
(mistimed rains can cause unwanted growth)
