A VERY GOOD, bright, clean, tight copy sans rips/tears, stains, discoloration and interior markings. ILLUSTRATED in black-and-white photography with accompanying descriptive captions. "While 'A Practical Guide to Impractical Pets' focuses mainly on the care, feeding, breeding, and health needs of a variety of animals, it also contains much information that is useful, interesting, and engagingly presented. Although Barbara Burn recognizes that many animals can be kept in a human household with some degree of success, not all species are good pets and many are downright dangerous or should not be kept in captivity at all for other reasons. Therefore she has divided potential pets into three categories: Easy, Difficult, and Impossible." 372 pages.
