Nice things do indeed come in small packages....

The late George S.Fichter was not only a highly esteemed zoologist and professor, but this little gem of a book(although Published in 1995),also demonstrates a true passion he had for conservation- warnings unheeded about the "Soylent Green" times in which we sadly find ourselves today. The zoological strata( sheer number of different animals) covered here is suprisingly broad in scope for so small a book- with the accompanying color illustations by Kristin Kest equally superb. All said, a highly recommended little gem.

great book

I loved this book. But it reminded me of another New York Times best seller that is in its fourth printing. Amazingly I did not find it in your listing. The name of the book is Cry of the Panther: Quest of a Species by author Jim McMullen. His publisher is Pineapple Press Inc in Sarasota, Fl.
