Fifty-two kinds of snakes can be found in the Southeast, almost half of all species native to North America. Filled with more than 300 color photographs and written by two of the region's most renowned herpetologists, this is the most comprehensive educational guide to the snakes of the Southeast.
At the heart of the guide are its heavily illustrated, fact-filled descriptions of each species and its habitat. Also included is a wealth of general information about the importance of snake conservation and the biology, diversity, and life cycles of snakes. Useful information about the interactions of humans and snakes is also covered: species that are likely to be found near houses, snakes as pets, what to do in case of a snake bite, and more.
Clearly written, cleanly designed, and fun to use, the guide will promote a better understanding of the habitat needs of, and environmental challenges to, this fascinating group of animals.

reviewed Snakes of the Southeast on October 27, 2008 Snakes of the Southeast
A good reference on snakes, I think. I don't know much about snakes, so take my review with caution. I found it difficult to look up those I didn't know anything about, but I also don't get a lot of practice & I know from looking up birds & trees that this kind of reference takes practice.
Part of the problem is the pictures. It is impossible to show all the permutations of the most common species around here, the Hog-nosed snake. It does give fairly good, descriptions of habitat, likely ranges & such.
In north-central Kentucky, we're on the very northern edge of the south-east US, just south of the north-east & at the far west of the Eastern range. Many snakes in the book don't usually apply to us, while others that do aren't mentioned - maybe. I think they did a pretty good job on the likely ones.
