Book Description
Amphibians and reptiles thrive in New Mexico's many landscapes and varied environments. In all, the state has 123 species, an assemblage of 3 salamanders, 23 frogs and toads, 10 turtles, 41 lizards, and 46 snakes. In this comprehensive guide, each species is presented in a color photograph and its distribution shown on a map. Technical art supplements, identification keys, and line art complement family descriptions. For each species, the following is provided: type, distribution, description, similar species, systematics, habitat, behavior, reproduction, food habits, and references.
The detailed descriptions add to our knowledge about the region's herpetofauna, which will aid students, herpetologists, and resource managers. The book is also of great benefit to non-specialists, including casual hikers, since the authors write in accessible language that makes for easy identification of species.
"This resource should be in the library of anyone interested in southwestern reptiles and amphibians or the natural history of New Mexico."—The Quarterly Review of Biology
"All students of herpetology should own a copy. This book will be a standard reference for the New Mexico herpetofauna for many years."—Herpetological Review
"Amphibians and Reptiles of New Mexico will undoubtedly prove an indispensable resource to many herpetologists of the southwest . . . Degenhardt, Painter, and Price have certainly produced what will be the first place to which anyone turns for quality information on the reptiles and amphibians of New Mexico."—Copeia
The definitive reference source covering the 123 species of amphibians and reptiles found in New Mexico, including over 130 color plates and 100 maps.
Customer Reviews:
Great resource. .......2007-01-04
Detailed information for the herps of NM. Excellent dichotomous keys. Highly recommended.
Technical art supplements, identification keys, distribution patterns, similar species outlines and more.......2005-07-06
Amphibians and reptiles abound in New Mexico: the state holds over 123 species, with almost fifty snakes alone. For a detailed, college-level review which includes technical art supplements, identification keys, distribution patterns, similar species outlines and more, make sure William G. Degenhardt, et.al.'s Amphibians And Reptiles Of New Mexico is on your bookshelf. Though a centerfold does pack in color photos, the meat of this study lies in its detailed natural history coverage, suitable for college-level study.
The best resource for NM herps........2004-05-30
This book covers all known New Mexico herpetofauna (circa 1990's). Salamanders, snakes, lizards, etc, it's all here. There may have been some changes in the last decade, but this book is still the best I've found; the information it has is accurate, the diagrams, photos, descriptions, etc. are all clear enough to aid in identifying animals. Habitat descriptions are precise enough to actually be of use, etc. The language isn't full of technical jargon--it's actually accessible and understandable for people who didn't major in biology! All animals are dealt with as thoroughly as possible; sometimes there are gaps, but that's because we just don't know how common some animals are, or what they eat, etc. If the info for the animal is there, this book has it. Feeding, mating, size, range, behaviour, etc. It serves as my main (almost sole) reference for herps in NM. I bought it in the middle-late 90's in a bargin bin in some state park, and have used it to help me plan herping excursions everytime I've been there, and to help me ID dozens of herps. It's been worth every penny.
A Blackhead Snake Best Buy.......2000-07-16
This is an excellent state work, with detailed and accurate text, excellent photographs, precise maps, and up-to-date scientific nomenclature. Common names are those standardized nationwide since 1978, with the exception of the names used for snakes of the genus Tantilla. Purchasers of this book should go to page 307 and simply cross out the tongue-twisting "black-headed" and replace it with Blackhead (so much easier pronounced; it just rolls off the tongue -- truly a common name). Highly recommended. Certainly the best book on the subject, and a must for all herpetologists. Buy it quick before they run out of copies.
Seminal work on NM Herps........1998-10-17
There are many, even myriad, good things about this book. However, there are a few things I did not like and which, if corrected in a future revision, could turn this book into a world beater in the field of herpetology. First the "bad" things: 1. This book needs a topo and political map or several. Places and physical features are constantly mentioned but, other than the tiny range maps associated with each species account, there is only one map at the front of the book which shows the counties and major cities, that is if you consider Animas and Hobbs to be major cities. 2. The glossary needs improvement. There are many terms which are used constantly which should be defined but are not. For instance, in one species account, a lizard is described as having scales which are "imbricate and mucronate." Just for kicks, I looked in the glossary. "Mucronate" is defined - "imbricate" is not. 3. Find another way to arrange the "List of scientific and common plant names used in the text." There is no arrangement whatsoever to the list. Plants are listed alphabetically by genus under the family. However, the family names are haphazard. Thus, if one does not know the family name, one has to peruse the list from top to bottom to find the plant named in the text. Woe be unto the reader who doesn't know that Helianthus is in the family "Compositae," the last named family. Pardon me for saying this but it appears as if the authors used their college botany texts to research the family names. After years of not complying with nomenclatural convention, the botanists finally joined the world and changed family names to agree with convention. Thus, Compositae became Asteraceae and Gramineae became Poaceae, for example. Also, ALL plants mentioned should be listed, even aquatic plants. Plants are keys to finding reptiles and even subtle differences in plant denizens of a habitat may make a great deal of difference in the animals found there. NOW FOR THE GOOD STUFF The standard items are all found at the beginning of the book, e.g., Foreword, Preface, Acknowledgments followed by a concise Physiographic Sketch of New Mexico (Words, not pictures) which in no way can take the place of a good physical map of the state. One of the best features is a "Brief History of Herpetology in New Mexico" in which the authors give insight into the historical aspects of herpetology in the state. This theme is repeated in the text of the species accounts with interesting snippets of history intermixed with the drier facts of science. A checklist of NM herps is provided and this is where disagreements are going to arise. The authors utilize what some would consider "old" or "controversial nomenclature." However, if one reads the species accounts, all disputed uses of nomenclature are explained. Even though I disagree with some of the generic nomenclature used, the authors gave good and valid reasons for using what they did. There are good keys to all the major groups of herps in NM and they appear detailed enough to lead a novice to the right creature, as long as the scales are not imbricate. The species accounts are very well written except for the occasional typo - "then instead of than", for instance -and give loads of information. Virtually everything one would want to know about an animal is in here. The species accounts follow a format similar to the SSAR Catalogue species accounts and that is not at all bad. It might be good if a majority of this type of book were to follow a similar format. A very fine section of glossy photos is found in the midst of the species accounts. It seems that this is the way publishers are going to make books now so, take it or leave it. The photos, by the way, are arranged in the same manner as the text for fairly easy location. Degenhardt, et al, have compiled a magnificent bibliography with everything you ever wanted to know about New Mexico Herps and where to find it. The authors have years of experience in New Mexico herpetology and have used every one of those years in producing an outstanding volume. It's a little large to carry out in the field but it is worth every penny and when in New Mexico, should be at least carried in the vehicle. This book would be a bargain at twice the price.
Amazon.com's Best of 2001
He didn't look like much. With his smallish stature, knobby knees, and slightly crooked forelegs, he looked more like a cow pony than a thoroughbred. But looks aren't everything; his quality, an admirer once wrote, "was mostly in his heart." Laura Hillenbrand tells the story of the horse who became a cultural icon in Seabiscuit: An American Legend.
Seabiscuit rose to prominence with the help of an unlikely triumvirate: owner Charles Howard, an automobile baron who once declared that "the day of the horse is past"; trainer Tom Smith, a man who "had cultivated an almost mystical communication with horses"; and jockey Red Pollard, who was down on his luck when he charmed a then-surly horse with his calm demeanor and a sugar cube. Hillenbrand details the ups and downs of "team Seabiscuit," from early training sessions to record-breaking victories, and from serious injury to "Horse of the Year"--as well as the Biscuit's fabled rivalry with War Admiral. She also describes the world of horseracing in the 1930s, from the snobbery of Eastern journalists regarding Western horses and public fascination with the great thoroughbreds to the jockeys' torturous weight-loss regimens, including saunas in rubber suits, strong purgatives, even tapeworms.
Along the way, Hillenbrand paints wonderful images: tears in Tom Smith's eyes as his hero, legendary trainer James Fitzsimmons, asked to hold Seabiscuit's bridle while the horse was saddled; critically injured Red Pollard, whose chest was crushed in a racing accident a few weeks before, listening to the San Antonio Handicap from his hospital bed, cheering "Get going, Biscuit! Get 'em, you old devil!"; Seabiscuit happily posing for photographers for several minutes on end; other horses refusing to work out with Seabiscuit because he teased and taunted them with his blistering speed.
Though sometimes her prose takes on a distinctly purple hue ("His history had the ethereal quality of hoofprints in windblown snow"; "The California sunlight had the pewter cast of a declining season"), Hillenbrand has crafted a delightful book. Wire to wire, Seabiscuit is a winner. Highly recommended. --Sunny Delaney
Book Description
Seabiscuit was one of the most electrifying and popular attractions in sports history and the single biggest newsmaker in the world in 1938, receiving more coverage than FDR, Hitler, or Mussolini. But his success was a surprise to the racing establishment, which had written off the crooked-legged racehorse with the sad tail. Three men changed Seabiscuit’s fortunes:
Charles Howard was a onetime bicycle repairman who introduced the automobile to the western United States and became an overnight millionaire. When he needed a trainer for his new racehorses, he hired Tom Smith, a mysterious mustang breaker from the Colorado plains. Smith urged Howard to buy Seabiscuit for a bargain-basement price, then hired as his jockey Red Pollard, a failed boxer who was blind in one eye, half-crippled, and prone to quoting passages from Ralph Waldo Emerson. Over four years, these unlikely partners survived a phenomenal run of bad fortune, conspiracy, and severe injury to transform Seabiscuit from a neurotic, pathologically indolent also-ran into an American sports icon.
Author Laura Hillenbrand brilliantly re-creates a universal underdog story, one that proves life is a horse race.

Wow. Finally........2007-10-02
I was so annoyed after reading "Water for Elephants" that my wife recommended this book. Wow. Really wow. The writing was like eating a great dessert, page after page.
There are so many best sellers out there now that are terrible it's refreshing to read someone who can really tell a great story.
Kudos to the author. Thanks for renewing my faith in the craft.
Read this book.
from the depths of being burned out and washed-up to becoming a champion..........2007-09-29
I really like horse racing, but I only go to the races one or two times a year because I'm not good at picking winners. It is an exciting sport that features some of the most beautiful animals you'll ever see. Then there is also the thrill and the adrenelin rush you get during every race.
This book will give you a good insight into many "behind-the-scenes" aspects of horse racing. It is the story of an incredible horse who managed to capture a nation's imagination, but also a trainer, an owner, and a jockey who helped bring Seabiscuit from the depths of being burned out and washed-up to becoming a champion.
This is a great book for racing fans and also for people who never thought twice about horse racing.
Writing Skills.......2007-08-08
This is a worthwhile book even if you have zero interest in horses or racing. It is one of the five best written books I've ever read regardless of topic.
Seabiscuit.......2007-07-29
Very insightful, this is a summer reading project for my youngest daughter, who is 15, and this book although the basis for the movie, goes into more facts, and gives the reader a feel for all of the characters, providing descriptions, and allows for descriptions of their thoughts and emotions. I highly recommend this book for the complete and accurate story behind Seabiscuit well well well beyond the movie
"Seabiscuit".......2007-06-09
I loved this story.....The characters were dynamic, and the story was well written. Lots of impact, held your interest to the end. I bought the audio book, and listened to it while exercising.
Product Description
Description: For more than a dozen years Laura Hillenbrand has been publishing articles about Thoroughbred racing. She is an editor and contributor to EQUUS magazine and her articles have appeared in American Heritage and many racing journals. In this runaway best-seller, she tells the remarkable story of the horse that became a national icon. Seabiscuit was a crooked little horse, built like a cinderblock, but there was something special about his attitude. In 1936, when a wealthy businessman, an aging trainer, and a destitute jockey focused their attention on Seabiscuit, they were astonished at the results. Despite heavy handicaps, Seabiscuit broke one track record after another. And despite the Great Depression, fans traveled hundreds of miles to see him. Hillenbrand colors Seabiscuits rise to fame with vivid anecdotes from the volatile, often-bizarre world of horse racing. At times astounding, hilarious, and heartbreaking, Seabiscuit has been called "one of the best sports biographies in the history of the genre" by Sports Illustrated. Retail $109.95USD - New.

Seabicuit: An American Legend.......2007-01-13
If you want a book about a real life fairytale, then Seabiscuit: An American Legend by Laura Hillenbrand is the book for you. This book begins with the interesting life of Charles Howard, Seabiscuit's owner. It then describes the remaining three characters, Tom Smith, Red Pollard, and of course Seabiscuit. This book also shows you what it takes to be a jockey. After getting you up to date on your horseracing history, Hillenbrand takes this book to the max! She takes you through Seabiscuit's amazing wins, and disappointing losses. Also, it shows you how one little horse with seemingly no future, brought three broken men together to create a dynamic racing team. What more could you ask for?
A book I read in my English class reminds me of this book. That book is To Kill A Mockingbird. This is like Seabiscuit because it talks about a family who is going through some hard times but sticks together and gets through it exactly as Seabiscuit, Charles, Tom, and Red did for each other. Also, both books in my opinion were very good.
Seabiscuit: An American Legend is a heart-throbbing, breathtaking story that anyone who loves true fairytales would enjoy. I love and have horses and I love anything to do with them. If there are any horse lovers out there, this is the book for you! I personally do not really like nonfiction books, but this book changed my mind! Hillenbrand combines real events with the funny personalities of real people. I can't wait to read it again!

Courtesy of Teens Read Too.......2007-06-02
Todd Strasser introduces readers into the world that The Fast and the Furious (Widescreen Tricked Out Edition) made popular, drifting, in his new series DRIFTX.
Kennin, a 17-year-old Asian-American, and his older sister move to Sin City to be closer to their convicted father after their mother passes away. There he befriends Tito and the beautiful Angelita, who are both into all types of race cars.
He soon gets swept into the world of drifting when he decides to go along with Tito and Angelita, and their cousin Raoul, to study, well, cars being the subject. And since the police have been raiding all of the races, it's no surprise when they show up.
Kennin takes control of the car when a tsuiso, a twin-battle drift, was in progress, and his talent is revealed. Once word gets out on how talented he is, Kennin is faced with competitors who do not want to be shown up by some new kid.
The first in the DRIFTX series, Todd Strasser brings all the cars and terminology into this action-packed novel. With drawings in each chapter, SLIDE OR DIE will definitely cause reluctant readers and fans of drifting to think twice about not reading. Fans of Todd Strasser's work will not be disappointed with this introduction into a new sport.
