Very good for what it isSeptember 30, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is a lovely general book on its subject, with descriptions of all the major large animals and groups of other creatures one might possibly see in India (and many of which one won't!). Attractive photos on each page, (and some gorgeous double-page spreads), interesting descriptions of both wildlife and reserves, and travel tips, as usual, at the end. But NB - this is a travel guide, not a field guide. There are photos (not drawings) of only a small minority of the creatures described, and the smaller the beast, the less likely there will be a photo. There is very little indeed on non-animal life.
