4.0 out of 5 stars Well done but ..., December 26, 2008

By	parula - See all my reviews

Meticulously illustrated in great detail. The binding needs to be changed however. I've purchased 2 and both have lost pages. A spiral bound, flat lying guide would be a big improvement.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!, February 4, 2006

By	J. A. Stauffer (Cape May, NJ United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is the field guide to damselflies of the Northeast that I've dreamed of. Ed Lam's artwork is stunning, as he illustrates each species in full detail. The book is concise and very well organized. He lets the reader know whether each species and sex can be identified in the field or whether it needs to be caught and inspected more closely. He gives critical field marks for accurate identification. Even if the reader never goes into the field to ID these beautiful creatures, the artwork alone is worth the price of admission. All species native to the northeast are covered including detailed range maps to the county level and both common and scientific names. I purchased this book directly from the publisher for $20 + S&H.
