Product Description
Wanderlust, February 2008
Tui's photographs are interweaved with passages about her countless encounters with the local fauna - from being charged by sea lion bulls to climbing into a volcano to watch Galapagos hawks feeding on iguana hatchlings.
The pictures are wonderful, truly capturing the characters of her subjects in 'the old-fashioned way', with no digital manipulation.

5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful photographic tour of the Galapagos, 6 May 2008
By S. Ankers "Traveller" (Preston, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I brought this book primarily for the photos of the Galapagos, which are truely wonderful, but I also found the text to be interesting too. The author moved to the Galapagos as a young child and recounts her childhood on the islands before mass tourism took over. As someone who has visited the islands and read other books on the topic I still found out new facts about the islands from the book. It was refreshing to read a personal account of the author's love affair with the islands rather than a stuffy textbook approach. Anyone with an interest in the Galapagos and/or a lover of great wildlife photographic will not regret buying a copy!
