Book excerpt: "The Rock Rattlesnake (Crotalus lepidus) is a small-to-medium sized rattlesnake that inhibits [sic] the mountainous rocky areas of the United States in western Texas, southern New Mexico, and southeastern Arizona. It is highly variable, not only in color, but in pattern as well ... the purpose of this project is to provide, through the compilation of hundreds of photographs of 52 localities and over 240 snakes, as well as photos that date back over a quarter-of-a-century, the first complete summary of that noteworthy variability, but the very habitats they have adapted to. Basically, this is a book of eye-candy!"--P. 4.
