If your looking for material to put you to sleep, look elsewhere! This book, however, is supercharged with great info for both the "average nature lover" and the casual to fairly involved field-herpers. You won't find a field guide with better rattlesnake photos for identification anywhere! I can't say enough about this great book, that will always have a prized spot on my bookshelf at the front of my snake book collection.

This review is from: A Guide to the Rattlesnakes of the United States (Perfect Paperback)

This book was given to me by a friend with much knowledge of rattlesnakes as a must have. As a novice in rattlesnakes, but an enthusiast, I found this book to be very comprehensive, informative, and quite descriptive. The authors did a remarkable job in conveying their knowledge on the subject and stimulated my interest even more in herpetology. Overall - high marks for this well-written and enjoyable book.

This review is from: A Guide to the Rattlesnakes of the United States (Perfect Paperback)

If you are looking for information on all the rattlesnakes in the US this is the book to get. It's informative, concise, well written & some of the best reptile photography I've ever seen. S Hurley, I think just missed the boat on what the point of this book is about. You can find anything on the Internet, but do you carry it with you wherever you go? Do you believe everything on the internet? Perhaps you are one of those people that think you know best. At least you recognize excellent photography.
