5.0 out of 5 stars Animal Tracks of the Pacific Northwest, September 8, 2000

This review is from: Pacific Northwest (Paperback)

On a recent vacation trip to the Pacific Northwest, I found this book at REI in Seattle. Me and my family enjoyed the book very much because of its unique characteristics: small, light, easy to carry into the field, cheap, the illustrations are mostly life-sized which makes it super easy to actually use by making direct comparisons in the field, and also the book contains ONLY the species we could expect to encounter in that region, which eliminates guessing about animals that don't even live there. We also liked the general tone of the book, friendly, knowledgeable.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not worth it., October 11, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Pacific Northwest (Paperback)

This title is woefully lacking in a few areas. While there are a few interesting and accurate tidbits in the narration, there is an obvious lack of info that would be *more important* to the budding naturalist/tracker. Also, the drawings are filled with inaccuracies (such as several canine charateristics in the bobcat prints) which would lead astray the untrained eye and make learning in the field much more difficult. Much more recommended are Lilliand and Donald Stokes' guide or that of Murie (Peterson Field Guides) or Paul Resendez. These authors have all made a more careful study and thus produce better literature and drawings.
