About

Gerald Durrell's tour of animals and wild life throughout South America. The noted naturalist finds beauty, wonderment and humor on the Argentine pampas. An account of the eight months Durrell spent travelling in Argentina during the late 1950s, collecting animals for his then recently founded Jersey Zoo.

No one but Gerald Durrell could wake up under a Land Rover in a cold Patagonian dawn and watch a family of foxes performing a Chinese ballet with a roll of toilet paper, and no one could describe their grace and absurdity so vividly. He had gone to that windswept and beautiful land to film penguins who had camped themselves on an arena by the shore where the sand was dotted with the relics of an extinct race of people. A wealth of creatures and GD's customary hilarious telling of their antics (and his own)

More than 30 illustrations by Ralph Thompson.
