Very Interesting Book!

Very good book for the very rare moth lovers out there. Great introduction to all the moth families. Especially liked the chapters providing short histories of past & present entomologists & their colorful, often eccentric lives. Great read in easy to understand language. Wish I had obtained this book 20 years ago!
