I noted in a Wolfville book store that Jeffrey Glassberg (who wrote 
"Butterflies through Binoculars..the East {1999}), has a new book out 
entitled "The Butterflies of North America". I have the previous one 
and find that because the photos are somewhat small, certain species 
are more difficult to identify. This new book does address that 
problem in that the photos are large & are a treat to look at.

As in the 1999 book, Glassberg shows little knowledge of range 
extensions in the Maritimes so the range of certain species  are 
drawn well S. of us. This is not a problem as there is a checklist of 
NS butterflies (thanks to the Payzants).

At $14.95 , Glassburg's newest effort is a steal!!
