A book for the Penguin lover in you
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This is a great book. The illustrations are wonderful and the literature is full of facts. I like this book for its variety and fun information. It's a good book for those begining to learn about penguins and for the penguin enthusiast alike. All around it is a book you will read over and over again.
Lucky to preview this book...

I had the privilege of seeing the page proofs for this book, and some of the color photography in it. It is a wonderfully warm, yet scientifically accurate overview of penguin life with pictures to die for.I've been watching this photographer's work since he first started to publish some twenty years ago. He has a great eye, and the technical know-how to convert a potential picture into a work of art. I still keep on my desk a copy of one of his first penguin pictures - which ended up by being published over and over again, even as a cover for International Wildlife.A sure-fire Christmas present for anyone interested in wildlife or photography - or both!
