Reviews
"This witty, insightful, and delightful book is a balm, and it's one that we need now more than ever." --Silas House, author of Southernmost, "The bountiful wildlife of the southland as lovingly seen and described through the eyes of an adopted son of the South." --Charlie Daniels, country music artist, "Rob writes the kind of book you end up reading in one sitting." --Sean Dietrich, writer, "Sean of the South", "Engaging and filled with surprising facts, Rob Simbeck's compact nature anthology conveys awareness of the natural world." -- Foreword Reviews, "When I heard Rob was writing a book about the "critters" in the outdoors, I was really excited, and I was not disappointed--what a fun read! This book gave me new perspectives and fresh knowledge about creatures I'm very familiar with. Sometimes I forget that other people see them in different places and in different ways. This is a book I'll share with friends and read again. Catch ya later--I'm headed for the woods." --Kix Brooks, country music artist, Brooks & Dunn, "Rob Simbeck is the consummate storyteller--informative, engaging, enlightening. The Southern Wildlife Watcher offers a superb blend of outdoor education and entertainment. Simbeck's stories of familiar and less well-known inhabitants of the natural world will appeal to all who appreciate the outdoors, even those who stay indoors." --Whit Gibbons, professor emeritus of ecology, University of Georgia, "I loooove this book! I was just thinking, I'd give anything to sit down and talk to my grandfather again. This book is like having that opportunity! My Mom's gonna love it, too." --Lee Ann Womack, award-winning country music artist, "This collection tells us a little about the critters we might encounter while hiking, camping, or simply exploring the mysteries and charms of the South's vast natural world, or even in your own back yard. . . . a welcome and refreshing reintroduction to some of our fellow planetary travelers." --Ben Moïse, author of Ramblings of a Lowcountry Game Warden, " The Southern Wildlife Watcher is a feast of information, appreciation, and wonderful writing that will bring your everyday world to life." --Michael Sims, author of Adam's Navel, "To look at nature with wonder and awe is to marvel at its glow. To see nature with knowledge and detail is to understand its truth. To view it through Rob Simbeck's eyes, the reader gets to embrace everything good about the beauty of nature in every possible way." --Holly Gleason, editor of Woman Walk the Line: How the Women in Country Music Changed Our Lives, "With the publication of this incredible collection of wildlife stories, Rob Simbeck takes his place in the company of truly great nature writers such as Hal Borland, Donald Culross Peattie, Herbert Ravenel Sass, and John Burroughs. His creature biographies reveal fascinating facts about animals that will stir readers to leave their armchairs and go outdoors to observe firsthand the denizens of woods, fields, oceans, and streams. Simbeck possesses a naturalist's keen awareness... The result is one of those rare books destined to be read again and again, each time with fresh enjoyment." --Keith "Catfish" Sutton, author of Hardcore Catfishing, "An excellent guidebook. Any nature writer who can turn house flies and carpenter bees into must-read stories is worth paying attention to." --Sam Venable, columnist, Knoxville (TN) News Sentinel, "Some of my earliest memories are of the outdoors and it's a place where I still find peace today. Rob Simbeck's stories of everything from the cottontail to the hummingbird bring me back home to Tennessee no matter where I find myself in the world." --Craig Morgan, country music artist, "From blue jays to luna moths, rat snakes to red foxes, starfish to great white sharks, Rob Simbeck teaches us all how to fall in love with the world, one wonderful, intricate living thing at a time." --Margaret Renkl, author of Late Migrations

The Southern Wildlife Watcher is a refresher course and handbook for veteran nature lovers, an introduction for young readers, and fireplace or bedtime reading for those wanting to reflect on nature's bounty. A foreword is provided by Jim Casada, the author or editor of more than forty books and some five thousand magazine articles.

- e***- (122)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaUnfortunately 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.
- v***v (2098)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaAlthough 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.How to chalk talk, by Harlan Tarbell (#197064259889)
