5.0 out of 5 stars FAN-CROCO-TASTIC!!, July 16, 2005
By 
B. BOESENBERG "REPTILED" (WANAQUE, NJ United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Crocodiles and Alligators (Hardcover)
There are many other books on the subject, I know I have them all, but take it from a herpetologist who works with these guys, this is the best one. Great basic descriptions of species, behavior, physiology, attacks on humans, pred-prey relations, mating and baby gator rearing. Wonderful pics, appropriate for kids and adults. Written by a series of experts in their fields for the broadest possible audience.

5.0 out of 5 stars Crocodiles and Alligators, June 8, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Crocodiles and Alligators (Hardcover)
"Crocodiles and Alligators", by Stephen Garnett is a superb in-depth and exciting collection or prints, photos, charts, and extremely well written information on the world and genre of the Crocodilians and their sub-species.

I first became infatuated with those great massive lizards as a youngster when I saw some of those old 1950's and early 60's Tarzan films, and African "White Hunter" movies like "Mogambo" and others. The film makers would always dub in some unrelated footage of crocodiles running off the muddy banks and sliding into the dark brown rivers. These shots were used to enhance the movies sense of reality.

This book brings those crocodiles and alligators out of the "black lagoons" and puts them up close and personal to the reader. This fine collection of information is suitable for the entire family from ages 8 to 80.

If, you can catch a copy of it, then I highly recommend you pull it on board before it gets away
