Takes you on a journey across the world in search of exotic, endangered creatures - animals that they may never get another chance to see. This book describes the giant Komodo dragon of Indonesia, the helpless but lovable Kakapo of New Zealand, the blind river dolphins of China, and the rare birds of Mauritius island in the Indian Ocean.
A reissue of a classic Adams title in which he journeys with zoologist Mark Carwardine in a worldwide search for the planet's most endangered species. Released to tie-in with a major BBC TV series "Last Chance To See: The Return" starring Stephen Fry which will air this year. In addition a new "Hitchhiker's" book by Eoin Colfer will be published in October 2009, raising Adams' profile even higher. This reissue also includes an introduction by Richard Dawkins
