5.0 out of 5 stars
Great book for anyone interested in tracking.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Tom Brown's Field Guide to Nature Observation and Tracking (Tom Brown's Field Guides) (Paperback)
This was the first book that I had ever found on tracking. It does a great job of teaching tracking fundamentals and enviromental awareness. Not enviromental awareness in the Greenpeace definition, but in being aware of what is going on around you. I lent it to a friend once and just about had to wrestle it out of his hands after a couple of months to get it back. It is a great book, well worth the money, and I would recommend it to anyone interested in tracking and observing nature. Some chapters include: Fine-tuning the senses; Movement and Camouflage; Animal Higways and signs; "Aging" Tracks and Signs; Reading and Following Tracks; and Search Tracking.

The only Tom Brown Jr tracking book you need,
By
This review is from: Tom Brown's Field Guide to Nature Observation and Tracking (Tom Brown's Field Guides) (Paperback)
If I had brought this before (rather than at the same time as) the Art and Science of tracking I wouldnt have brought the latter.This book spells out as much 'technical detail' on tracking as you are ever likely to need. It is a usefull guide to read and learn (although would be more useful in North America!) for the 'hard' theory and then take out 'Animal tracks ID' by Ian Maxwell when you go out tracking. A good book to have on the shelf.
