Being somewhat of a fox afficianado myself, I've found how difficult it is to get any decent reference materials on these creatures. It seems that their slyness in nature has also led to their escaping the eye of the literary world, except as characters in children's books. (An alternate theory, which I firmly believe in, is that it's all just a conspiracy by the wolves.) This book, however, succeeds in capturing much of the beauty of these animals while also explaining much of the rigorous work that goes into their day to day lives. For anyone who is truly interested in the wonders of this oft-neglected creature, this is one of the best books for a general overview of their lives

Combine stunning photographs with beautifully written, well researched and concise text and you have The World of the Fox; this book is a MUST HAVE for any fox enthusiast, artist or admirer. For as much information on foxes as I have gathered over the years, this is by far and away my absolute favorite resource for practical information on specifics of the various vulpine (and alopex) spiecies.

My wife and I enjoyed this book. The photos are excellent and the text is good.
