AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Twenty-five years ago, a young curator of mammals from the Australian Museum in Sydney [New South Wales] set out to research the fauna of the Pacific Islands. With accounts of discovering, naming and sometimes eating new mammal species; being thwarted or aided by local customs; and historic scientific expeditions, Tim Flannery takes us on an enthralling journey.'
