Former high school science teacher and the first curator of birds and reptiles at the Rio Grande Zoological Park at Albuquerque, New Mexico, Williamson shares stories of the creatures of the West, found from the Pecos to the Colorado, from the depths of Death Valley to the towering peaks of the Sierra Madre Occidental; and from Big Bend to Baja.
This book provides a few short detailed trip reports all over the Southwest borderlands. Williamson's experiance and dedication to herpetology is obvious in this work. While the book is short and sweet, it provides good details on numerous taxa unique to this region. I would assume that this would be good to have on the shelf for any non-native herper planning a trip to the desert southwest.
