National Audubon Society Field Guide to African Wildlife

Summary: Essential book for safari
Review: I just got back from a two week safari in Tanzania and both of my guides raved about my book. They each had books with pictures of birds and animals, not actual photos. The descriptions in this book are accurate, the photos beautiful, and the price is well worth it. I ended up giving my copy to my guide when he took me to the Serengeti airstrip for my trip home. I'm ordering another copy now!

Summary: Must-have Reference for Safari Goers!
Review: This is a great reference guide to African wildlife. It could be used on safari to identify some animals or acquire additional information about already well know animals. It can also be used at home to read about the animal behavior, habitats and national parks of Africa. The book has wonderful collection of photographs useful for identification of many species. It also lists national parks and other sanctuaries by country. There are photographs of different wildlife habitats and a chapter explaining the geography of African continent. This is a very useful book, which could be used in many different ways to enjoy or gather information about the wildlife of the African continent. I recommend this guide to anybody interested in the natural history of Africa.

Summary: The best book in it's subject I have found.
Review: We had just returned from our 17 day African Safari vacation. Many photographs were taken while on Safari. When the photo were developed my wife and I had a hard time remembering all the amimals we saw. This book has excellent quality and a large amount color photographs of African Wildlife. It doesn't stop there, The facts and information the author shares is phenomenal!
