Galápagos: The Islands that Changed the WorldYale University Press, 1 січ. 2006 р. - 240 стор. The first complete guide to the dramatic environment, the wild inhabitants, and the human history of the enchanting Galápagos Rocky, fragile, beautiful, strange--the Galápagos archipelago is unlike any other place on earth. Its geology, its unique flora and fauna, and its striking role in human history intersect in surprising and dynamic ways. This book is the most wide-ranging and beautifully illustrated book available on the famous islands. Not since Darwin's Naturalist's Voyage has a book combined so much scientific and historic information with firsthand accounts that bring the Galápagos to life. |
