Madagascar - Hilary Bradt, Daniel Austin - diskuze

This thoroughly updated 14th edition of Bradt''s Madagascar remains the leading and by far the most detailed guidebook to this unique African island nation - a place like nowhere else on Earth. Its authors are both established Madagascar experts: Hilary Bradt, who first visited in 1976 and has returned roughly 35 times, and Daniel Austin, who has visited 30 times across 20 years and continues to spend several months a year there. The world''s oldest - and fourth-largest - island, Madagascar is fascinating not only zoologically and botanically, but culturally, linguistically, historically and geologically too. Evolution has transformed the country into an unparalleled hotspot for biodiversity, with four-fifths of its flora and fauna occurring nowhere else on the planet.
