 Best BBC wildlife book April 4, 1999
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Wildlife Specials was relaunched in September 1998 to accompany a series of spectacular BBC 1 television programmes of the same name, featuring six of the most charismatic animals on our planet, the polar bear, crocodile, eagle, leopard, wolf and humpback whale. Presented by Sir David Attenborough and filmed by award-winning cameramen and producers, the Specials are a resounding success and continue to be extremely popular, not only on television in the UK and Ireland, but throughout the world. The book describes the making of the films from the viewpoints of the cameramen and producers, providing fascinating and entertaining insights into the creatures themselves and their frequently remote and untamed environments. Each beautifully illustrated chapter is accompanied by a facts page containing the latest scientific information. ". . . marvellous visual impact" ". . . inspiringly good"
