I flipped through the encyclopedia in a bookshop, really nice hardbound book but way too pricey (much cheaper on Amazon) Someone please purchase them for me.   ;D

Oh, and I already have this weighty tome  which has some pretty good info and enjoyable reading...

See my edited post.  The pictures are OK, I wouldn't say crappy but not super clean hi-res either.  You did say coffee table book, the encyclopedia is mostly pictures, so nice to flip through.

Nephasth:

Anyone own this one?
