Galapagos (Collins Safari Guides)

This guide contains photographs and descriptions of over 250 species you are likely to encounter on a trip to these remote Galapagos Islands. Although perhaps best known for its giant tortoises, many other mammals, reptiles, coastal and marine life, birds, plants and invertebrates are also included. In addition, there is information on the history of the islands, climate, conservation, the Galapagos National Park and the volcanism of the area.
