The Fishes of Tennessee

Rating:
Summary: Easy to read, color photographs, detailed life histories
Review: Anyone interested in the waters and fish fauna of Tennessee will HAVE to procure this book. With complete species and taxonomic descriptions of all native and exotic fish, this book also provides intimate details concerning ecology, behavior, and evolution of the class Osteichthyes. Beautiful color photos of living specimens make identification a pleasant experience using the detailed keying information. Though not inexpensive, its price is less than most other books in its class. For a technical taxonomic work it is very easy to read. I highly recommend it for any naturalist interested in aquatic fauna of the region
