Praise for Ed Lam's Dragonflies of North America:

"There is no question that this is both the definitive field guide for North America’s dragonflies and a fabulous collection of beautiful paintings and illustrations of these colorful and interesting creatures. Ed Lam has achieved for dragonflies what Roger Tory Peterson did for birds. . . . [A] monumental achievement.”"—Dan R. Kunkle, Wildlife Activist

"A terrific guide. . . . Whatever your level of proficiency, you will benefit from this work, and perhaps even more important you will revel in the beauty of it all. Well done, Ed Lam!"—David M. Gascoigne, Travels with Birds

"Dragonflies of North America by Ed Lam is a significant achievement in the world of insect field guides. . . . His drawings enchant and make us impatient to go outdoors and observe the soaring, hawking, patrolling, mysterious predators we call dragonflies."—Donna Lynn Schulman, 10,000 Birds
