I thought this to be a very well written book by an author who holds entomology very dear to him. This book provided details I had never really heard about but which it is important to hear about for the past and future implications of pests. Also it did not focus on this locust species as just a terror for settlers but put it in it's place as one of the most important creatures to the plains and western United States. I liked it a lot!
