 Text book December 28, 2007
The book is in excellent condition, as described by the seller. It arrived more slowly than I expected, but it probably was delayed in part by the holiday mail traffic.

If you enjoy learning specific information about mammals, this book is for you. It is a bit technical which makes it more interesting. I used this book when on Safari and it added tremendously to my enjoyment.
It's what my native guide used in Botswana January 3, 2007

I just returned from a three-week trip to Botswana and plan to write a book that takes place there. I ordered this book because (a) I saw how good it was while I was there, and (b) mainly because it's what my native guide used in Botswana. I can't imagine a much better endorsement than that.

I suspect the book is a little over my head, but it's very thorough & well-reasearched. For a layman like myself, I think I'd like photos - or colour pictures of the animals too - but as the author says, the book goes beyond the normal "field guides" which aim to help with animal identification.If you want to know things like how the lives of a dikdik & a duiker differ (but you could tell them apart), this is the book for you!
