Default Book recommendations?
Does anyone know of any good reference books on North American colubrids? Matt at T Pets showed me a ratsnake book yesterday but I can't remember the name of it (PM on its way to him lol) and it got me thinking about asking you lot for any reading recommendations. I'm not talking the £5 care guides obviously lol.

Thanks you lot - looks like I've got some saving to do. It is specifically a decent species guide I am after, something far more in depth than the usuals. That looks brilliant, not sure if it's the same one Matt showed me as he said his cost about £70, so probably not the same book. Unless he got a bargain! ETA: He got a bargain, it's the same book. Thanks!
