Adventures of a Young Naturalist: The Zoo Quest Expeditions by David Attenborough

4.0

"The republication of these accounts makes a worthy addition to the great naturalist expeditions of the past such as Wallace’s journeys to South America and Southeast Asia. This book may not match the descriptive charm of Wallace, the humour of Durrell, or even the evocative lyricism of Attenborough’s own later work, but there is still much to love here. In these early works, we see a young naturalist in the making, and join him on the journey that helped create one of the most respected and admired nature writers and broadcasters of the modern age."
