A wry, wonderfully evocative account of a 1924 scientific expedition, including an excellent chapter on the human history of the Galapagos by Ruth Rose. A contemporary reviewer wrote, "Galapagos is a glorious book. It is high romance, exact science and wild adventure." Originally published in 1924, this facsimile edition includes the original black-and-white illustrations and photographs with many of the original color engravings reproduced on the covers.  (GPS01, $18.95)
