Customer Reviews

Artistically stunning! Biologically Accurate!

I find that this book is excellent for providing accurate background information on the animals and plants as well as portraying each species with characteristic body language. This is by far my favorite photography book as a piece of art as well as a biological reference tool.

Amazing, beautiful photos.

Amazing, beautiful photos of some of North Americas rarest species. A "must have" coffee-table book!
