  • What Ever Happened with Andrew Smith's Poecilotheria Book?

    The title pretty much says it all. What ever happened to Andrew Smith's Poecilotheria book? Was work on that project stopped for some reason?

    According to one of the journals (last year I think) he scrapped the idea of the genus book and is transferring it into one which covers other spiders and whatnots.

      I'm not sure if it has even been published yet.
      If I'm right the actual name of the book was going to be "Poecilotheria Tarantulas & The Tiger Spider Wallahs" and published by Fitzgerald publishing

        Right on all counts. He was originally working on the definitive guide to Pokeys but during his reserch decided to switch tracks and is now working on a book about the history of the great arachnologists of yesteryear. If you know Andrew then expect an epic
