Description
Last Chance to See is a thought-provoking book that combines witty writing with a serious message. Douglas Adams and Mark Carwardine's adventure takes readers on a journey to encounter some of the world's most endangered and exotic creatures.
The authors' encounters with animals such as the giant Komodo dragon, the lovable kakapo, and the blind river dolphins highlight the urgent need for conservation action. This book is both a celebration of our most extraordinary creatures and a warning about what we have to lose if we do not act soon.
Featuring a new foreword by Stephen Fry and an afterword by Mark Carwardine, Last Chance to See feels more relevant than ever. With its unique blend of humour and insight, this book is a compelling read for anyone interested in the natural world and our place within it.
