Last Chance to See: In the Footsteps of Douglas Adams by Mark Carwardine, Jovana Kuzmanović

4.0

4 stars. While Carwardine doesn't quite have the narrative charm that Adams had in the original book, he (almost) makes up for it in his unbridled sincerity and willingness to confront difficult questions and arguments head-on, which as the conservation situation gets worse, feels like an apt tone to take. I appreciated the better page layout and especially more photographs - this is where Carwardine's increased input shines. I did have to drop a half star from the original just as I was less inclined to race through it like I did its predecessor - I still finished in under 24 hours though. Ultimately, this edition is just as essential as Adams' original one, and both are worth the read.
