    Garter Snake Books?

    I would like to have a book specifically about garters. Like one that has: basic husbandry/care, how to breed, and guide to different species & morphs. What garter literature do you have?

    This is The Book.
    Not much for "care of" but certainly the most complete book on the genus.

    They are not just snakes. They're garter snakes.

    I have the above, and I also have a few smaller care guides. I think this one is quite good - Amazon.com: Garter Snakes (T-Rex Education Series): Jon Coote: Books
    Keeping - 'Florida blue' sirtalis, concinnus, infernalis, parietalis, radix, marcianus and ocellatus.

    I went ahead and bought this book. I would rather have something more about husbandry than about scientific taxonomy. thanks for the replies.

    I think I'm going to treat myself and get these books. I actually have no books on snakes let alone garters , how I have become dependent on the Internet. I remember when I actually read books before getting a pet
