287pp inc index and a plethora of colour illustrations by Philippa Scott - This is Vol I of the three volumes eventually published. Scott, son of the Antarctic explorer, by the mid '80s had travelled most of the world, keeping a diary in words and pictures at all times. Illustrated by his own drawings and paintings as well as his wife's photographs, this is a gorgeous and highly informative volume for the conservationist (Scott was a founder and Chairman of the World Wildlife Fund (International)) and held office with several similar organisations.
