    Unfortunately I received a damaged book, the item and the package both were damaged and it was clearly evident its appearance that it happened during transit. The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.

    I recently purchased an item from this eBay seller, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the prompt communication to the fast shipping, everything was handled with utmost professionalism. The item arrived exactly as described and was well-packaged to ensure its safety during transit. The seller was courteous and responsive, making the entire transaction smooth and hassle-free. I highly recommend this seller to anyone looking for quality products and excellent service.

    A great resource on wildlife

    A favorite from my childhood, info on lots of animals, plants and fungi, with excellent artwork. I’m not sure if the info is completely up to date as the book is from the 80s, but for the casual user I’m sure it’s as accurate as you’d need. Using it to take with on my trips to national parks. Noted a zone of wolverines in Southern California. This is an old book. Looked up current info. There is ONE WOLVERINE LEFT in So Cal. So sad. But I learned about it because of this book.

  • Most critical review

    Pretty comprehensive

    Overall, I am fairly pleased with this book, though honestly, the sketches of animals are a bit obsolete. With the ubiquitous phone cameras, I'd have expected real photos. I have owned better manuamanuals, but I give this a fair rating.

  • Amazing natural resource for kids and adults!

    Decades-old book with excellent illustrations and information. My grandmother gifted me one when I was 8, My 7yo son found it in the bookshelf and was as fascinated I was when I was a kid, so I bought one on eBay and gifted it to him since mine was worn out. Excellent book to have if or your kids are into nature, hiking, or other outdoor activities where you encounter foliage and wildlife. Can't recommend it enough!

  • Excellent Wildlife Reference!

    The Readers Digest North American Wildlife is filled with a treasure trove of information for outdoorsmen (and women) who have an interest in the flora and fauna they are likely to encounter. And the illustrations are just excellent (and accurate). I wouldn't be without my copy. I was so impressed, I went online and bought two more copies, one for each of my brothers. Makes a terrific bathroom reader too!

  • Very informative, I know what poison ivy looks like now, and I know what kind of snake crawled inside my house. was either a rat snake or racer snake.

    Good book has plenty of pictures. I'm old so if the book had bigger pages it'd be better for the elderly ( bigger pictures ) I knew the size of the book before I bought it.1 I'll just get my magnifying glass out or put my glasses on.
