Summary: The Inland Fishes of Mississippi
Comment: If you are looking for a comprehensive guide to the native fishes of Mississippi, you need look no further. Not only does this work include all native and exotic species of fish in Mississippi but also extensive biological information on each. This volume should prove useful to not only a well versed field biologist, but also anyone interested in fish.

Summary: A lot of Fishes for the Price
Comment: I have to say up front that I am a bit prejudiced here. Dr. Ross is responsible for my current interest in fishes and I have been looking forward to this book for a while. That being said let me tell you what is good about this book... #1 The keys are outstanding, they are made so that the expert or layman can use them. Key identification points are well illustrated and explained #2 The species accounts are the best I have ever seen. There is excellent information on the biology and conservation concerns of each species. There is also a brief section on the meaning of each scientific name that will be of interest to the professional and beginner. #3 Dr. Ross included an excellent glossary and bibliography that will make further research and understanding easy. #4 There is also a section on the history of Ichthyology in the Southeast US in general and Mississippi in particular.
If you are interested in the fishes of the Southeast US this book will be useful and entertaining. It will be indispensable if you study fishes in any Mississippi river or Gulf drainage. I can remember my first day in class, thinking that we where just going to look at a bunch of minnows. I know better now, and this book will explain why.
