Some books try to be all and they end up suffering for it. I wouldn't mind if a book were lacking in husbandry details if the identification was top notch, and vice versa. Within the tarantula hobby, the book that is considered the best in the English language, has very little information on individual species. Still, it is a must have. Now if you want to know how to keep or identify individual species you will have to get another book. Sadly, I haven't found an ID/husbandry book that comes even close to this one.

I am really looking forward to my Garter book. I'll have to tell my mom I want it for Christmas and she can move some of my Christmas presents to my birthday in February. I picked out pretty much everything anyway so I know what I can wait to get.
