Re: Trying to find a book on cacti
From your description I wonder if it was Barthlott's book with the simple title "Cacti" published in 1979 - it is the only one I can think of that size and at the time quite widely available which covers a wider range of aspects of cacti than others.

Re: Tony Morris RIP
In addition to what Tony did for the society as detailed in the advance notice of the auction of his plants, he was a very kind and helpful person and was keen to support people new to the plants. He will certainly be greatly missed.
