Excellent Book October 9, 2007
Excellent book Vance. I am going to go read your next one, I am sure it will be as good as this one. Wonderful detail and wonderful storys about wild life.
Science Facts, Fables & Good Old Time Stories December 24, 2001
This book is a delightful combination of science facts, popular un-truths and common sense stories from old time wardens. Written with a real feel of hands-on Americana. Puts the irrational fear of these critters into perspective and gives us all a glimpse into past attitudes and how they compare with present fears. Truly an enjoyable read!
Naturalist December 1, 2001
Rattlers & Snappers is not only a book about snakes and turtles, but also about conservation officers and their interactions with venomous reptiles in the mountains of north central Pennsylvania. An entire section is devoted to the art of snake handling and the ordeals of being bitten, as related by the first-hand experiences of retired conservation officer's Norm Erickson and Stan Hastings.
Turtle lovers will appreciate the section, Harvesting Snappers - From Swamp to Soup, where the author leads the reader through the backwaters of rivers, streams, and swamps in pursuit of the old mossback.
This book is a must-read for anyone with a love for the outdoors.
