  Ever since the days of Darwin, the Galapagos Islands have captured the imagination of the world. This book captures the ethereal - even haunting - quality of these islands, in words and in pictures, like none ever before. This is the culmination of a life's work: thirty-five years of exploring and recording the secrets of Galapagos. The text flows from an intimate knowledge of, and deep love for, the Galapagos, and the quality of the imagery reflects the author's recently awarded place as one of the world's top twently wildlife photographers. As the 21st century progresses, the Galapagos Islands are reaching a critical crossroads from which they will emerge with difficulty. This book celebrates their vibrant essence.
