One of the most informative& exciting books I have ever read,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cobras in His Garden (Hardcover)
I'm a 45 yr.old man & I checked this book out of the school library when I was in the 7th grade. I didn't know much about snakes at the time,but from the 1st page until the last, I couldn't put it down. I read it straight through the night! Not only was it educating, it read like a novel, there was not a dull moment in it! It sent me on a journey of fascination that will be with me all of my life. A lot of people have written books on snakes and reptiles, but William "Bill" Haast,takes you farther into sceintific areas, without boring or losing the reader, than any book I have ever read. He will dispell all of the rumours and myths, that most people beleive about snakes. He also takes you on a trip through his own personal triumphs & tragedies and learning experiences, that made him an expert in his field. This is a fascinating book for young or old, and I highly recommed it, whether you are fascinated, mystified, curious, or just plain afraid of snakes. A real eye-opener. David Boyd END

Rattlesnakes now in his garden,
By RAY HUNTER (Port St. Lucie, Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Cobras in His Garden (Hardcover)
COBRAS IN HIS GARDEN is an excellant book, and was an inspiration to me throughout my life with my own interest in venomous snakes. To say the very least, I own quite a bit to Mr. Haast, and his wife Nancy. If you get the chance to visit Bill Haast today, you will most likely find him in his "garden", an acre and a half walled in rattlesnkae pit, complete with irragation system, and artificial turtle holes for the snakes. This worlds largest man made snake pit has several of Mr. Haast's favorate plants, and is mowed regularly by Nancy Haast. I look forward to someone writing another book about Mr. Haast, and his many projects, not all snake related. But until then, THIS BOOK IS GREAT! My autographed copy is the only book I own that is NEVER lent out.

Outstanding book, fascinating subject.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cobras in His Garden (Hardcover)
I met Bill Haast in 1982 when I was 13. The only bad thing I can say about this book is that it was written in 1965...and is in desperate need of an update. So much more has happened in 34 years
