Cool! I've downloaded it and added it to my fish book collection.

Thanks for the tip. Now I can get rid of the bad copies I've had of the Suckers chapter.

Great tip

Thanks for the tip.  I have been eyeing up the "Fishes of Tennessee" for some time but the cheapest copy in fair condition is over $400 now.  E-book now added.  Thanks Josh.

I'm downloading the Tennessee one right now. It could help me a lot, being an hour from the state line.

WI fishes

Can you download sections of the WI book as a pdf?  If so, how?

I don't think you can.

I don't think you can.

You could download the images of the pages, then lay them out in a page layout program and make a PDF of the whole book (1000 pages!), but it would be tedious in the extreme.

They used to have a Djvu (or something like that?) viewer of the book, and that allowed PDFs of individual pages which could then be combined.
