Although I did gain a few nuggets from this book, it's not my favorite in the world of photography how-to books. From the sounds of it, this author is quite an accomplished photographer. Sometimes I felt like the photos he chose did not reflect his talent. Also, there was a time or two when he made a reference to an experience he had in the field but did not include the photo to correspond with it. It was still worthwhile to read so I appreciate the information.

Nice easy book to learn some tips on using my new camera to capture action shots of animals out in nature.
