Reviews
"This is the most comprehensive educational guide to the snakes of the southeastern United States. Clearly written, well designed, and fun to use, the guide will promote better understanding of the habitat needs of, and the environmental challenges to, this fascinating group of animals."-- Center for North American Herpetology, "A treasure to anyone having an interest in becoming a herpetologist . . . The photographs will attract every herpetologist, as they are fit in perfect context, and mostly never seen in publications before. Certainly the price will make it highly affordable for both the novice and professional herpetologist."-- Bulletin of the Maryland Herpetological Society, "The Southeast is especially ripe for a book that places snakes in a context that can help catalyze a change in attitudes toward these badly maligned animals. This profusely illustrated book is a big step in the right direction. . . . The information presented here is detailed yet presented in an easy-to-understand format. This is a worthy and valuable addition to the natural history literature of the Southeast. This book should be carried by anyone going into any natural area of the Southeast. It should be kept on hand even in urban and other areas where snakes could turn up."-- Copeia, "Clearly written, cleanly designed, and fun to use, [ Snakes of the Southeast ] is a guide that will promote a better understanding of the habitat needs of, and environmental challenges to, snakes."--Bob Edmonds, McCormick Messenger, "Easy to read . . . An informative book for the general public aimed at educating those with a limited knowledge of snakes."-- Southeastern Naturalist, "Small, medium, large, water, and venomous snakes are included as well as backyard snakes, pets, attitudes about them, and conservation."-- SciTech Book News, "Makes an eloquent case for the environmental importance of these slithery denizens of field, forest, swamp and backyard . . . The poisonous snakes evoke the most interest, of course, and the authors do a good job of debunking the many lurid myths that enshroud these vipers."-- Mobile Register

- 3***p (88)- Feedback gegeven door koper.Afgelopen 6 maandenGeverifieerde aankoopI've ordered from Rarewaves here in the US and the UK multiple times, and continue to do so. They always seem to have something I can't find anywhere else at all or for a reasonable price. When I purchase used items, they are as described, if not a grade better. Aways a quick turnaround after ordering, every item arrives promptly, professionally packaged. Many orders have free shipping, even for solitary item orders. I never needed a reason to communicate, as I've had no cause. Recommended.New Model Army Original Album Series (CD) Album (#297384568493)

- n***1 (86)- Feedback gegeven door koper.Afgelopen 6 maandenGeverifieerde aankoopItem arrived still wrapped as advertised but it must have taken some damage in transit since it arrived with a couple cracks and a small chunk of the frame of the case had completely detached. BUT the discs were still undamaged so I messaged the seller to tell them I was still going to keep the item I just wanted to let them know about the issue and they messaged me back and offered me 20% off the order to make up for the inconvenience. Great seller. Would purchase from them again.Star Trek: The Next Generation: Season 6 (DVD) Star Trek Next Generation (#297401993046)
