This is our first family field guide that we picked up at a used book sale. It is not comprehensive, but covers more than the basics well. The color illustrations are great and we have learned much from the book so far in the year that we’ve owned it.

Our family uses this book for identification of North American Wildlife -Animals – all the time. We live on a farm with a lake and have many different waterfowl, fox, beavers, deer and other animals visit our farm and we really enjoy looking up the animals to learn its’ name, habitat and food requirements. Also as an artist I personally use the beautiful color drawings of the animals as a reference guide to correctly paint them.

We own a lot of field guides, but this recently purchased book covers a great many species that we couldn’t identify in those guides, and also gives little tidbits of interesting facts about each one. Great illustrations as well

I received this book from my mother. A few years ago I was visited by a Sharp Shinned Hawk which landed on my front porch near dusk one evening. I was not sure what kind of hawk it was, so I looked in my newest bird identification book which listed all known hawks, but was not sure I had identified it appropriately until I looked in my oldest reference, “North American Wildlife”, which had the exact picture and description. This is a great book for the wildlife enthusiast as it contains numerous forms of plant and animal information.
