This is a book written with a genuine love and concern for these often maligned animals-and with a knowledge of their role in the ecosystem. There are eleven chapters with sixty-three photographs, more than half of these in color. Written about a time not so long ago when collecting and releasing these reptiles was not as restricted as it is now. The stories are of capturing snakes in the wild. From forests to swamps from backyard to desert. Sometimes with danger sometimes not. But always with excitement. There is a section on the identification of venomous snakes of the United States including precautions and advice on first aid. A chapter on rattlesnake round-ups and their effects on snake populations is discussed. Diagrams explain how a rattle works, how the venom delivery system operates and the efficacy of a striking coil. Fallacies and folklore are examined and set straight. The stories are real. The snakes are exciting. The excitement is real. E.C.O. 915 Seymour, Lansing, MI 48906, (517)487-5595, Fax (517) 371-2709, email; ecoorders@hotmail, website; www.ecouniverse.com.
