Not only does Tennessee have more freshwater fishes than Alabama, it's also a lot cheaper to read a book about them!

The 2002 edition is available as a pdf. Updates and new species accounts are in the works.

Enjoy!

How do you get a signed pdf copy?
:
75 megs or so... mega download!
My paper copy is falling apart. Having the PDF on my computer may make for easier access.
FREE. Amazing.

_{Awesome, now I can read Dave's book. I remember when he was still putting it together. I spent 7 years working on Saganaga Lake up on the border where the Etniers have their cabin. I went fishing for lakers with him a few times...he knows where a lot of good spots are. If I remember right, he rediscovered the snail darter that was supposed to be extint or somthing. Or maybe he was the one that described the species. I don't really remember to well, that was back when the only native fish I knew anything about were the ones that I liked to eat. Thanks for the link to his book!}

Did anyone else notice random words missing throughout the book?

Some of the UT Press folks said the library folks were running into a few problems during scanning and making the pdf version.

Is the text in this pdf searchable, or is it a scanned picture of the pages?
I have hard copy of the 1993 edition. Is there much additional info in this 2002 edition?

I can't believe anyone hasn't jumped on the fact Ben said "updates coming soon". This is my only Fishes of .... book that I have kept up the best I can making distribution, systematic, and taxonomic updates too. It's a mess inside.
