Product Description

Synopsis
This guide contains photographs and descriptions of over 250 species you are likely to encounter on a trip to these remote Galapagos Islands. Although perhaps best known for its giant tortoises, many other mammals, reptiles, coastal and marine life, birds, plants and invertebrates are also included. In addition, there is information on the history of the islands, climate, conservation, the Galapagos National Park and the volcanism of the area.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you take one book with you,take this one, 4 Dec 2000
By A Customer
Having spent several weeks in the last two years travelling in Galapagos,I have bought and seen numerous guide books.This book stands out,combining the "best of the rest" in terms of history/background/climate/geology of the islands with a comprehensive field guide.The photos are informative and of the highest quality,the writing concise yet sufficiently detailed,and the section on the plants and trees is unique amongst the books I have come across.The visitor site maps are easy to read,attractive to look at and extremely useful.If you buy/take along with you only one book,I would make it this one!

5.0 out of 5 stars A great reference, clear, concise, and colourful, 21 Nov 2000
By A Customer
I wholeheartedly recommend this book to anyone who wishes to find out more about the amazingly diverse range of wildlife and plantlife on the Galapagos. The book is small enough to carry around comfortably (it won't take up too much space in your pack!), and is packed full of bright, clear illustrations and detailed descriptions of just about everything that lives and breathes on this incredible archipelago. Congratualtions to the Fitter family for another great addition to their collection.
