"License numbers of boats named after flowers are arranged simply and straightforwardly in paperback book format. Issued with a pack of seventeen cards (6 x 9 cm.) documenting individual boats by type (“Motorized cutter,” “Trawler,” “Long-liner”), full license number, name, home port (“Cuxhaven,” “Esberg,” “Neustadt”), and flower family (“Begonia semperflorens,” “Camelia japonica”). Pure poetry, scientifically presented." -- Printed Matter website
