Nice Basic Manual For Budding Herpetologists

This is a fine little volume for budding herpetologists. The author gives basic instructions on keeping, feeding, and raising lizards. He gives a lot of detail about the various species of lizards and the pros and cons of each as pets. The photography is nice. The book is very small, only about 6 by 10 inches and a little over 100 pages long. For someone looking for the basics of lizards, this book will fit the bill.
