Nick Garbutt is Britain's best-known and most popular authority on Madagascar's wildlife. He has observed almost all of Madagascar's mammals in the wild - a claim only a handful of others can make. He is also a talented artist and wildlife photographer.
'Photographs that could grace a glossy coffee-table book are matched with authoritative, up-to-date text in a guide small enough to pop in your backpack... If you are a natural-history buff who dreams of seeing this amazing island, Garbutt just might tip you off the couch and stir you into action.' * BBC Wildlife (May 2007) *
