Amphibians and Reptiles of Georgia

Most complete book I have ever seen on this subject. A great buy for any rising herpatologist.

This is a very helpful book with great photos and lots of good information. The binding is sturdy and seems to be water resistant which is great for a field guide. Very worth the money!

Large, useful book that is geared more towards the average person or nature lover. Detailed descriptions for each species with excellent maps accurate down to the county level. If you need just one book for identifying the various herps in the state then this is it.

Until now, there was no up-to-date comprehensive guide available dealing with the reptile and amphibian species of Georgia, a state exceptionally rich in its variety of interesting and unusual types. At long last, this oversight is more than compensated for by this sumptuous volume containing in-depth accounts of every species, including beautiful color photos and information about habitats, range records by county, conservation status, etc. Although not technically a hardcover, the binding is of surprisingly high quality, with sewn pages and a durable, flexible cover. This book is an incredible showcase of Georgia's varied herpetofauna, and a must-have addition to the library of anyone interested in learning more about it.

I have a creek in my backyard that attracts wildlife. Several times I've spotted little beasties who showed up as being in the projected range in the book, but with no actual sightings. I would think the book should offer a active feedback website so the public could submit new sightings like these along with photos where available.The only other flaw in the book is a clear, consistent classification system. Good pictures, but the accompanying descriptions are in my view inconsistent.
