Incredible Diversity Documented with Beautiful Pictures,
By
This review is from: FISHES OF ARKANSAS (Paperback)
Even as the Clinton presidency draws to a close, Arkansas remains the undiscovered state. Fishes of Arkansas is a visual treat--a species by species documentation of the incredible diversity of freshwater fish found in that state's streams and waterways. Arkansas is an inland state, so one might imagine that a fish survey would document only a narrow array of green and brown game fish, of little interest to those outside the bait and hook hobbies. Fishes of Arkansas demonstrates instead the incredible biodiversity found in the numerous fish species located in Arkansas. Here are pictures of gorgeous fish, large and small, including many of intense beauty and tremendous color. The darter section of the book, featuring many species endemic not only to Arkansas but in many cases to a single river in Arkansas, shows the reader spectacular, unforgettable fish. The narrative is simple and straightforward--each entry is a separate species, usually with a picture. The grouping is organized by family, and the authors provide judicious use of light explanatory and summation material to tie the individual entries together. If you need something on your coffee table or shelves which is light, pleasant picture-filled reading but not fluff, try Fishes of Arkansas.

Review of Fishes of Arkansas,
This review is from: FISHES OF ARKANSAS (Paperback)
Fishes of Arkansas
Robison and Buchanan have done a good job of describing all of the fishes of Arkansas and showing where they can be found. The color pictures of actual specimens are superior to those in Fishes of Oklahoma and the drawings in Fishes in Kansas. There is a lot of information given, comparable to Fishes of Missouri. For people interested in fish, the book is a good investment.

Comprehensive and well done,

This review is from: FISHES OF ARKANSAS (Paperback)
This is a thorough - and to my knowledge, the only - treatise on native fishes of Arkansas, with photos, maps, and descriptions. A must for anyone interested in the taxonomy of Arkansas fish.
