Strengths:
very knowledgeable author
Weaknesses:
really written for the US market
This book is okay but is clearly written for the stateside market both in terms of the language used and the species photographed.
If you are a beginner you will find the first "how to" section useful but beyond this unless you are planning a trip to the over side of the atlantic I wouldnt really reccomend the book.
For the more experienced photographer there is some inspiration and the photos arent bad , though IMO they are no better than much of what can be viewed on WAB
