A Backyard Book of Spiders in Maine

"I love this book. The personal anecdotes in A Backyard Book of Spiders in Maine make them real, and they show how Dana Wilde is passionate about them, making it fun to follow as he opens a new world, not just to those spiders of Maine but through them to the rest almost anywhere, and to anyone. There is so much fascinating to see in nature, as this book shows."

--Bernd Heinrich, author of A Naturalist at Large, Summer World, Winter World, and others
