| العنوان الفرعي للكتاب | A Visual Celebration Of Ten Of The Greatest Natural History Expeditions |
| وصف الكتاب | Voyages of Discovery is a mesmerising visual record of ten of the world's most significant natural history expeditions.Among the many stories of adventure and great scientific endeavour are: Sir Hans Sloane's journey to Jamaica; Maria Sibylla Merian's personal sojourn in Surinam; James Cook's perilous Pacific crossings; William Bartram's fanciful yet detailed documentation of North American wildlife; Matthew Flinders' mapping of Australia accompanied by perhaps the greatest of all the natural history artists Ferdinand Bauer, and Charles Darwin's fateful Beagle voyage.Hand-picked from the vast Library of the Natural History Museum, London, the illustrations and artworks contained here form a rare collection, many of which have only been published in this stunning book. |
| المراجعة التحريرية | It's difficult to resist attacking this book with a pair of scissors. Not because it's bad - far from it - but because so many of the illustrations whisper 'Cut me out and stick me on the wall over the mantelpiece.'' Royal Geographical Society 'Nature lovers should enjoy Voyages of Discovery with hundreds of naturalist drawings.' USA Today |
