Which wildlife books to get?

[squizza]

I've become a bit obsessed with looking at and taking wildlife images. I'm just wondering what you deem as fantastic wildlife photo essay books. For example I have only got Wildlife POTY 2009 and Nick Brandts On This Earth, and want to extend my collection

Thanks in advance

Kingfisher: Tales from the Halcyon River
by Charlie Hamilton James

Pretty amazing in my opinion

Jim Brandenburg "Brother Wolf" - astonishing

There's a compilation from Wildlife Photographer of the Year that is good for showing development in style over the ages. Although not wildlife but animals, James and Other Apes is a personal favourite of mine. Check out Franz Lanting's work. Vincent Munier is well worth a look.

I find reading Wildlife books just gets me depressed. Its much better getting out and doing it yourself. If i need inspiration on where to go then i pick a species i like and then search the the internet for places to find it.
