The
natural history of the largest, most dangerous viper in the world.
An intriguing inquiry into the life habits of what might
be the most fascinating of all snakes . . . The infamous bushmaster
is made scientifically accessible without detracting anything from its
mysterious allure.
"This book constitutes the single greatest reservoir of facts
and interpretations that have yet been offered on this poorly known
reptile. It is certain to become the standard work.”
-- Charles M. Fugler
“A bushmaster opus, thoroughly investigated . . . I
am impressed by Dean Ripa’s incredible experiences with these snakes.
. . A labor of love.”
Jonathan Campbell, coauthor of Venomous Reptiles
of Latin America
“This is the definitive work on the bushmaster, and likely to remain
so.” Franklin Everson Shaw
