“Two excellent authoritative guides – Graeme Gow’s Snakes of Australia and Stephen Swanson’s Lizards of Australia – have been brought together in this convenient edition.  Information on each snake and lizard is arranged in a concise and easy-to-read form so that quick reference can be made regarding distribution, description, size and habits.  Striking colour photographs, 200 in all, of the snakes and lizards in their natural environments, enable immediate identification in the field.
Special chapters are included giving valuable information on the treatment of snake bites and the care of snakes and lizards in captivity.  Stephen Swanson also includes a comprehensive section on photographing lizards.”
