Book Reviews of The Raptor Almanac: A Comprehensive Guide to Eagles, Hawks, Falcons, and Vultures

Book Review: Superb !!
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a must-have book for all the raptor fanatics all over the world ! This book is very entertaining as well as informative - and the photographs are a real bonus ! It gives a lot of information about raptor biology, lifestyle, origins, coservation etc with a very interesting section regarding the interaction between humans and raptors. Statistics in tabular form are also included and are really interesting.

Do not buy this book if you want a field guide or want to know about identification techniques for raptors because it simply does not treat the subject ... but then again the book is not meant for this purpose.

It is suitable for both people who know nothing about raptors to the people who want to know more about these fantastic creatures. It is even worth to buy it for the spectacular photos alone !
