Book Reviews of A Dazzle of Dragonflies

Book Review: A Dazzle of Dragonflies
Summary: 4 Stars


This is a "coffee table book" rather than a field guide. It provides a wonderful reference and background for those interested in dragonflies and damselflies. It is slanted towards those species occurring in the Southwestern United States, but includes species found elsewhere. It is nicely illustrated with computer scans and photographs of these insects, and of their habitats and interactions with other animals. There are chapters on observation, photography, and collection along with information on their role in various cultures.
