tarantulas and other arachnids
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This is a well written, very informative book covering just about all aspects of tarantula care. It is a must for the beginners, and still helpful to the more experienced. Covering the basics of anatomy, husbandry, handling, breeding, etc.. Good amount of species specific information, too. Housing requirements for aboreals, opportunistic burrowers, obligate burrowers, is very informative. Great book.
A must read

I'm new to Tarantula keeping and needed a reference which was well researched informative and easy to understand. Sam Marshall's book is all of these things and more. The books many illustrations are also very helpful. Great for newcomers to the hobby.
