Reviews

"This substantial guide is laid out in a side-by-side format, with the illustrations of each animal facing their description. Each entry includes the description, distribution, habitat, status, behavior, and similar species. An introduction provides instructions for using the guide, including field techniques, identification keys, and habitat types (with photos). The guide is beautifully produced: the quality of the illustrations alone makes this a noteworthy reference."--SciTech Book News
