The Spice Islands Voyage
Description:
'His dedication will enthrall, entertain and educate' - DAVID BELLAMY 'A fine reporter and a literate writer.' - New York Times This is a book about a journey and a quest: a journey among the Spice Islands of equatorial Indonesia aboard a traditional native sailing vessel; a quest to rediscover a remarkable man - Alfred Russel Wallace. This brilliant and intrepid naturalist's research and travels founded the science of zoo-geography and provided Charles Darwin with vital clues in developing the theory of evolution by natural selection, which Wallace had worked out independently. Tim Severin set out to restore Wallace's reputation by retracing the explorer's journeys through the exotic islands.
