Default Good books

Any reconmendations on some good all round books?

Found lots of species specific books, but not many general reference books.


Non venomous snakes by Ludwig trutnau, Any good?

Nick

'Reptile Care' by Frye are very good!
For keeping there's 'The Art of Keeping Snakes' by de Vosjoli.
Another one I have isn't great for information but the picture's are fantastic! Real close up, big pictures of unusual reptiles, it's 'Reptiles' by Teddy Moncuit and Karim Daoues.
'Rattler' by Chris Mattison is an interesting read too.

I found one in Waterstone which I really like. It is Collins Gem "Snakes" and is a listing of 220 species (including the non-venomous and rear-fanged) in pocket format (the size of the palm). I find it convenient to look up a species "on the go".
