Antarctica A Guide to the Wildlife 3rd
The following report compares books using the SERCount Rating (base on the result count from the search engine).
Rating: 5/5 from 2 reviews Great, portable guideI bought this book in preparation for a trip 'South' in December 1999/January 2000 and it was an extremely useful guide to wildlife in general but especially good for penguin information. The drawings by an ancestor of Robert F. Scott's are lifelike, and engaging art as well. The brief summaries of natural and exploration history are accessible and informative. If you are looking for a portable guide to peninsular wildlife get the book--you won't regret it. A good, portable guide to commonly seen Antarctic wildlifeIf you are visiting the Antarctic Peninsula and nearby islands, this guide is a good field guide to identifying, and learning about, the most common Antarctic fauna you will experience, including birds, mammals and cetaceans. (It is not a comprehensive guide for htose desiring in depth information and identification of every species.) José Kirchner | ||||||||||||||||||||
