The Arctic by Tony Soper
Bradt's fully illustrated wildlife guides focus on regions of the world particularly celebrated for their amazing and often unique species. With spectacular photography or exclusive watercolour drawings throughout, each visitors' guide provides an introduction to the region's principal flora and fauna alongside suggested wildlife itineraries, practical information on when to go and what to take and photography tips. Written in a deliberately engaging way, they offer something different from dry field guides, and will appeal to the interested layman as much as the wildlife devotee. It is ideal as a lightweight companion to any wildlife trip they also make a handsome souvenir. This is an introduction for visitors to the birds, animals and marine life of the Arctic Ocean and its polar fringes, and a fascinating and informative armchair read.
'A beautifully written, engaging text by polar veteran Tony Soper describes the habits and life histories of widespread species, which have been exquisitely illustrated in watercolour' WWF Arctic Bulletin 'Bradt Travel Guides simply have the best wildlife coverage of any of the popular guide books.' BBC Wildlife
Tony Soper's expert knowledge is richly supplemented with full-colour illustrations by award-winning wildlife artist Dan Powell.
