5.0 out of 5 stars
The Bahamas are not part of the Caribbean,
By V. I. Per "Namorc" (Hammond, LA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Caribbean Amphibians and Reptiles (Hardcover)
I am not a customer but the editor of the book. I just noticed the review that complains the volume left out a key part of the Caribbean, the Bahamas. Interestingly enough, the Bahamas are in the Atlantic Ocean and not in nor border the Caribbean Sea.

2.0 out of 5 stars
Excludes a large part of the Caribbean, the Bahama Islands,
By A Customer
This review is from: Caribbean Amphibians and Reptiles (Hardcover)
A book on this subject is a welcome addition to the library of any herpetologist. However, this book has a number of shortcomings including its exclusion of the entire Bahama archipelago. A book with this title should include these islands with their endangered species. The book includes 8 color plates each with up to 11 color photos of native species. Unfortunately, a number of the captions do not match the photos on the plates making them useless to the uninitiated.This book will be useful, however the typos and missing geographic coverage along with the unusually high price for such a small book are definite drawback. This is a college-level, acedemic textbook and not a field guide which may account for its price. |
