Australia's Animals Discovered

Description:

European explorers were amazed by the strange animals they found in Australia; their accounts make fascinating reading; their sketches are charming, if often innacurate. Here is the first collection of this material, species by species, gleaned from books and other sources that date back to the 1600s. It includes material on more than 60 species, many with the first recorded European sighting, and all with up-to-date biological information.
