NOTE WELL: This book is a PHOTO BOOK - designed for viewing/reading on devices which support color. A PHOTO book showing some of the species of Violets which can be found in Eastern Japan. The authors have been photographing Violets for about 8 years and have finally put together this collection of Violets photos showing what a visitor to the forests and mountains of Eastern Japan can hope to find in the spring of the year.
This book lists scientific names (Latin) as well as the Japanese common names (in Katakana). Daniel has been living (and photographing) in Japan for over 10 years now. His partner and himself started photographing Violets about 8 years ago and became interested in identifying them correctly soon after that. They found a detailed book in Japanese language, so Kazuya (the co-author of this work) was able to read it, but not Daniel.
They found this work to be very good and were quickly able to start identifying their photographs of Violets. They have added about 60 species to their life list since they have been Violets maniacs. This book shows 87 of Daniel and Kazuya's photos of Violets.

Biographie de Daniel H. Wieczorek

Daniel Wieczorek was born in 1947 in Ionia, Michigan. He graduated from the University of Michigan with a B. S. in Forestry in 1969. He moved to Oregon to work in the field of forestry in 1971. That was followed by a move to Alaska in 1975, where he continued his career in forestry. After about a 14 year career in forestry, Daniel decided to do something different and he served as a Peace Corps Volunteer in The Philippines from 1985 - 1987.
Upon completion of his Peace Corps service he returned to Alaska, where he attended the University of Alaska - Fairbanks and received an M. B. A. in 1991. This was followed by a move to South Korea in 1992, where Daniel taught English to Korean people wishing to improve their English Language skills. Daniel's next stop was in New York City, where he worked as temporary staff at Deutsche Bank from 1998 - 2001.
He left NYC in March 2001 and moved on to his present home in Mitaka City, Tokyo, Japan. He is teaching English in Japan and at this time he's been teaching as a career for about 17 years. He has been hiking, climbing and doing photography since he was about 12 years old.
