Robert the Bruce by Jack Whyte
David Lack's classic work on the finches of the Galapagos Islands (Darwin's Finches) was first published in 1947; few books have had such a great impact on evolutionary biology, indeed it is still one of the most succinct and fascinating treatises ever written about the origin of new species. The 1947 version is reproduced with facsimile pages of the original text, tables and line illustrations. The major feature of this reprint is the additional material supplied by Dr Peter Boag and Dr Laurene Ratcliffe who have both completed studies on the Galapagos. The readership will comprise students of evolution and ecology and those interested in the history of evolutionary thought. Amateur ornithologists and tourists visiting the Galapagos Islands will find this account fascinating.
Whyte, Jack: - Jack Whyte is the author of sixteen novels of historical fiction, including the 10-novel cycle of A Dream of Eagles (the Camulod Chronicles in the USA), set in post-Roman Britain in the late third and early fourth centuries, the Knights Templar Trilogy, set in the Crusades of the 11th, 12th and 13th centuries, and The Guardians Trilogy, set in 14th-century Scotland during the Wars of Independence.
