This is the latest book in the excellent and beautifully illustrated Bradt Wildlife Guides series. The author has condensed over 20 years of travels in search of wildlife into this very special and useful book.

The wildlife of Eastern Europe is one of the unexpected attractions of a region best known for its cultural assets: relatively few visitors are aware of the diversity on their holiday doorstep, from brown bears and wolves to numerous birds absent or no longer common in the west of the continent. Accessible and beautifully illustrated with colour photographs from around the region, the guide aims to appeal both to the holidaymaker and to the serious naturalist seeking a compact volume to carry around.

The book covers the wildlife of 15 countries: Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Kaliningrad, Poland, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Slovenia, Romania, Bulgaria, Croatia, Serbia, Montenegro, and Bosnia & Herzegovina. There are chapters on Landscapes and Habitats, Mammals, Birds, Reptiles, Amphibians, Invertebrates, Looking for Wildlife and Where to Go?
