A LIFE ON OUR PLANET

ADVENTURES OF A YOUNG NATURALIST

In 1954, a young television presenter named David Attenborough was offered the opportunity of a lifetime - to travel the world finding rare and elusive animals for London Zoo's collection, and to film the expeditions for the BBC. Written with his trademark wit and charm, this is not just the story of his remarkable adventure, but of the man who made us fall in love with the natural world, and who is still doing so today. This book expresses some outdated views and cultural depictions.
