3-0 out of 5 stars Accessible and informative
Something about the armadillo interests us. The unusual features, the reputation for harmlessness, and the association with Texas have all combined to give the armadillo a unique place in our consciousness.

This book capitalizes on this interest by laying out an unusually broad range of basic information, ranging from the natural history of the armadillo to the Apelt Armadillo Company, which turns the little critters into baskets.

The text is clear without being poetic; it is written for the layman in the same way that a textbook is. The end result is prose which is accessible, but somewhat dry at times. For the record, I'd prefer a bit dry to a botched attempt at something grander, and I didn't mind it at all.

To me, the single most interesting section dealt with the critical role that armadillos play in leprosy research. Who knew?

If you have an interest in this critters, I recommend this book as a great way to introduce yourself to the subject. I wish there were a book like this about every species.

From the author: I report an observation of a foraging Ovenbird (Seiurus aurocapillus) following a nine-banded armadillo (Dasypus novemcinctus), near Gainesville, Florida. Close attendance only while the armadillo was moving and disturbing leaf litter suggests the Ovenbird was taking advantage of increased prey availability caused by the armadillo's flushing of insects.

Product Description
Cal Gibson rode horses with his father as a boy. Now, fifty years later and a lone rural relic, his lifestyle continues in the countryside of Missouri as well as in its neighboring states, the South, and West, despite the impersonal advances of technology. He is a cowboy. Southwest Missouri s oak forests, native prairies, grass-covered hills, and cattle operations second only to Texas, are Cals home. Here as a young man, he gains the devotion of a lovely woman, but is forced to walk away. He makes do, however painfully, throughout his remaining years. Yet, here, too, Cal has held tight to friends that last and stand with him when the going gets tough. Cal and his six lifelong companions provide a final burst of heartfelt determination and courage that unknowingly fosters revolution in a land written off as soft, spoiled, and doomed by greed. Cals violent but heroic end spells out how this brave cowboy near sixty contributes more to his small community, his state, and his country during a cold December and January, than anyone could dare hope in a string of lifetimes. This intense but uplifting story tells of the heartland and its real people, their loves, tragedies, and spirit in terrible times. Cal Gibson grows to be a lone rock of decency and hope holding on in midstream as a fearful river rises. He provides the steady hand his community needs to cope with a calamity that today is all too possible. ... Read more
