wildlife—penguins and porpoises, fur seals and flamingoes. A Guide to the
Birds and Mammals of Coastal Patagonia, written and illustrated by Graham
Harris, covers 185 species of bird and 61 species of mammal. Well presented and
attractively produced, it is an invaluable guide to the region’s wildlife.
