Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
A comprehensive, fully illustrated guide to every dragonfly species found in North America
Dragonflies are large and beautiful insects, diverse in color and pattern. This premier field guide provides all the information you need to identify every male and female dragonfly found in North America, whether in the field, in the hand, or under the microscope. The extensive illustrations are the heart of the book. Close-up color portraits of each species, often several times life size, show the best possible specimens for close examination. Each sex is depicted using multiple images, with postures and viewpoints consistently maintained to aid comparison. Dragonflies of North America is the ultimate guide to these extraordinary insects.
- Covers all 329 North American species, including distinctive subspecies and variations
- Features nearly 1,900 highly detailed paintings and drawings, providing clarity and consistency that photographs cannot match
- Illustrates each species with multiple views for easy identification and comparison
- Gives an invaluable introduction to dragonfly anatomy, behavior, and life cycle
- Offers additional guidance for the most challenging species that defy field identification, highlighting anatomical characteristics to aid identification in the hand
- Includes a distribution map for every species
"There is no question that this is both the definitive field guide for North America’s dragonflies and a fabulous collection of beautiful paintings and illustrations of these colorful and interesting creatures. Ed Lam has achieved for dragonflies what Roger Tory Peterson did for birds. . . . [A] monumental achievement.”"---Dan R. Kunkle, Wildlife Activist More
