Although it would make a great title for a science fiction story, this book is the one that took harvesting food frogs out of the hands of inbred swamp-dwellers named Cletus and turned it into the million dollar industry it is today. It gives detailed information on the construction of the ponds, selection of breeding stock, care of the eggs, tadpoles, and young frogs, and what to feed each.

It has no illustrations, while the copy on gutenberg.org does, however the illustrations are no help. They only show frogs, not construction details of the ponds and equipment.

The book inspired me to find almost anything else to do with my life but raise frogs.
