Customer Reviews

Highly Recommended

The title says it all: Compact articles about 100 places to see wildlife. There are some decent photos, but the focus of the book is on information rather than art. Each article gives the key information on what is to be seen at each site, and advises on the best time of year to visit. The focus is on the natural history here, there is little information on where to stay or dine. But those topics can be left to more "ordinary" guides! Incidentally, the 100 sites are well-distributed across the country, and I even learned of one in my own state that I didn't know about .If the topic excites you, I predict you will find the book valuable.
