This is an excellent reference for a novice tracker or even for an experienced tracker. All topics are covered, from theory, definitions, styles, reinforcement, and all the information to get you to advanced tracking.
This book is well laid out, easy to read and informative. A must have for all those interested in starting tracking or improving on your existing skills. |

| The Best Tracking Book!, February 1, 2008 |
| Reviewer: CS |
I have read no less than eight different books on tracking, watched more DVDs than I have fingers on a hand and been to several seminars on tracking. As with other training disciplines, there are always many ways to train. Most other books and DVDs left me feeling like only 20% at best was useful or new information (many books simply restate the same ideas), whereas with this book, I kept saying, 'Oh wow, this is good.' I even found myself re-reading portions - something I had not done with others.
This is truly the best book on tracking that I have read to date. Get it - you won't regret it. |
