A Nice Pocket Guide July 26, 2008
I purchased Dragonflies of the North Woods based on recommendations of people. I live a bit south of the North Woods but most of what lives near me in Northern Illinois is said to live in the North Woods area. I am new at Dragonflies, but so far have used that book and the Stokes Beginners Guide to identify several species I had not seen before. The North Woods book has clear pictures, and for each species shows time of year they are active. There is also a little tidbit of interesting information called a Nature Note for each species. While I could wish for a range map, this book is a very useful general guide as is.

This fine book is well-written, sharply-designed, and full of interesting facts about dragonfly life, as well as what you need to identify the species in the area covered. The author's obviously extensive experience shines through in the text.
Great Field Guide with Details and Humor September 16, 2003

Kurt provides all the details to make identification possible: clear photos, description of habitat, and the time when a species is active. In addition, the chapters at the front of the book spark your interest in this fierce predator: What is a Dragonfly, Dragonfly Biology 101, Behavior of the "Winged Dragons" and Dragonfly Observation.
