Visiting Borneo in February I was fortunate enough to see the Proboscis monkey ( Nasalis Lavartus). I bought this book whilst out there. It is a very comprehensive, easy to read book that deals with all aspects of the monkey that is endemic to Borneo.
The basic facts are there entwined amongst beautiful pictures that catch the monkey at all times. the photographs have depth of colour and the mid-flight photographs are spectacular!!
The love of this book is that it is for all those who want to know more about the monkey because they like it, or who want a basis to further reading. There is a whole chapter relating to where the best places to see the Proboscis monkey are and even gives directions from the airports!! It details how to travel to the lodges etc and where you can stay!! So if you are hoping to visit this wonderful country and its unique monkeys then read on .... and be led into a country that will be as true as it is written
A powerful book and one that I woulfd recommend to anyone. It is easy to read, not loaded down with jargon, and insightful Gn take that journey....you won't regret it!!!
