Maggiori informazioni sul libro

JLB Smith's famous Old Fourlegs (on the discovery of the first and second coelacanths) was a best-selling South African natural history classic that was translated into 16 languages and published in many editions. Mike Bruton's book offers the original publication, but now with extensive annotations in both margins, modelled on Martin Gardener's The Annotated Alice. The new book features insights and discussion about the personalitites behind the original discovery, and the era in which they operated, along with exciting finds and advances made in the field since the first book was published. With a new foreword, detailed introduction and conclusion, it brings the coelacanth story right up to date.
