An excellent overview of the Sea of Cortez fishes

I noticed that one person reviewed this excellent book from a narrow perspective and I want to say that I totally disagree. This book is not really intended as a hand guide to identify fishes for the snorkeling amature. It is intended to give you an overview on what is known about the fishes of this region AND for the experienced snorkeler or diver or fisherman, it truly is an excellent guide in identification to species. I have worked as an ichthyologist in the region numerous times and the book was invaluable. I think it is well written and is full of interesting facts about the fishes of the region. The challenge with the black and white illustrations (which are excellent) is using them in concert with the written description. It's a fun book to use and read. I highly recommend it!
