I like the organization and content of the guide. Each species is given photos, historical information, then paragraphs on field ID, similar species, habitat, associate species, spawning, abundance, and best sites. A distribution map of Ohio is also provided. I find the "similar species" paragraph especially useful.
The Kindle format works well for me, though it would be better if there were an index with links provided. I can reference the guide in the field on my phone, use it on the iPad, and also on the PC where the large screen allows me to have photos of a fish alongside the guide.
To ease navigation for myself I'm creating notes on certain species' descriptions so that I can quickly jump to those species. Not sure if I'll do all species as I reference them or just ones that get me to a group of species and then use the multi-page view to browse that area of the guide.

A Naturalist's Guide to the Fishes of Ohio [Print Replica] Kindle Edition
A NATURALIST’S GUIDE TO THE FISHES OF OHIO represents the first comprehensive treatment of Ohio’s fish species since M.B. Trautman’s 1981 revision of The Fishes of Ohio. Illustrated with beautiful fuII-color photographs, this guide presents detailed information for 187 species of native and non-native fish, including recent introductions and several extinct or extirpated species. Each account offers field identification notes, population trends, spawning habits, the best sites to encounter each species, and distribution maps showing current and historical collection records. Easy-to-read graphics indicate each species’ habitat preference and vulnerability to extirpation, and the engaging, informative descriptions provide interesting facts and useful cultural and historical context. This book will be a valuable addition to the library of anyone interested in the natural history of the Midwest, and in learning more about Ohio’s diverse, colorful, and unusual aquatic Wildlife.
