Anyone recall the old books that had photos by Isabell Hunt Conant?

Also, what other old books do you all recall fondly? I ran across some of the old Ditmars books that I used to check out over and over again from the public library - brought back a lot of memories...

What are some good books to read on the "Dry" clan? Or better yet, are there any out there specificly about indigos? Or at least a chapter on them?

I had quite a few books at one time or another. After I read them, they got passed on to others. I suppose that's a good thing for the recipient, but it has made my library rather small.

Sorry I don't recall any authors. "Snakes, Snakes of The World, Reptiles and ampibians of North America, and Snakes as pets". Just to name a few. I believe "Snakes as Pets" had a picture of Bill Haast's daughter holding a monster Florida indigo. That was the first picture I ever saw of an Eastern Indigo. That was about age 7. I've been in love ever since. With the snake, that is.LoL. I think that book also had a picture of Bill in his snake pit with a king cobra, printed on the back cover. This thread has brought back fond memories. Thanks,
T.
