There is another book referenced in Aquarium Fishes of North America, but I
have never seen it an don't know anything about it... anyone else out there
have any word on this book (can't recall the title right now)?
Oh, and a quick plug for the Okefenokee book... I do not own a copy, but
did check it out from the library last year before our trip and it is a
good little book.
