This review is from: A Field Guide to Moths of Eastern North America (Paperback)
Excellent source guide to moths of the Eastern United States. The photos in this edition lack clarity and need to be printed better. The author is superb. He is the authority in his field. All that is lacking is quality printing of the material.

Useful, but disappointing., July 8 2006
By Scott V. Carter "pavel321" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: A Field Guide to Moths of Eastern North America (Paperback)
The reference text is very complete and detailed. However, when I found that most of the photo plates were black and white, I groaned. What I imagined I'd be receiving was a field guide with a good photo with each entry. As it is you have to flip back and forth from text to plate. A book with photo plates is really "old school" these days.

Recently out of print, this is the best way to go!, Feb 1 2006

This review is from: A Field Guide to Moths of Eastern North America (Paperback)
This is the same classic Moths that Peterson Guides put out, only it's in the format of the Robert Anthony style guides that came out in the late '80s. White and a single color with a photo on the front. Inside, it's the same wonderfully complete Charles Covell book, un-updated as far as i can tell, but not numbered like the true Peterson Guides.So, if you're looking for the contents of the book and to identify moths, this is the CHEAPest way to get a copy - and thank the Virginia Museum of Nat. History for working to get the reprint rights. If you are looking for a collector's version, it fills slot 30 better than the Easton Press leather edition because it looks like a Peterson Guide.
Listmania!
