I thought this book was excellent.,
By zeena@le16.freeserve.co.uk (England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Mammals of Madagascar (Hardcover)
This book is very good for all age groups. It has detailed information about all the different mammals in Madagascar, including lemurs and lorises. This book is very good for anyone wanting to find out about a certain type of lemur. I throughly enjoyed dipping into it and I learnt a lot. I would highly recommend it to serious readers.

Excellent book,
By Jeffrey Zack - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Mammals of Madagascar (Hardcover)
This is an excellent book on some of the most fascinating mammals to be found anywhere in the world. There are many photographs and the quality is first class. If you are interested in lemurs, this is the book for you. Indeed, the Mammals of Madagascar rivals a coffee table book in terms of the quality of the photography while at the same time including the kind of detailed information you would expect to find in a field guide. 6 of 6 people found the following review helpful:

At last! A field guide to Malagasy mammals!,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Mammals of Madagascar (Hardcover)
This book will be a valued resource to those studying mammals, those working Madagascar, or even folks visiting Madagascar to enjoy the fauna. Prior to this volume, there was **no** comprehensive guide to mammals (in particular a paucity of information available on rodents). Garbutt has done a fantastic job of providing us with practical information and clear, useful photos/drawings. If we could all be so lucky to see the creatures featured in this book. Owning the book will have to suffice for many of us, epecially given the high risk of extinction for many of Madagascar's native mammals. Well worth the investment.
