Item Description...


Product Description
"The best of all natural history journals which have ever been published."---Charles Darwin, 1874. Beautifully illustrated and a pleasure to read, this classic book describes the geography, geology, ecology, flora, fauna, and native inhabitants of Nicaragua in the nineteenth century. Many of Belt's detailed and accurate observations were not confirmed until decades later---for example, the fact that certain plants have "standing armies" of ants that defend them.

Reviews - What do our customers think?
A Naturalist in Nicaragua  Dec 11, 1999
This book is one of the best natural history books ever writen. Thomas Belt lived in Nicargua for 4 years during the last century and his travel with in the country descrived the way the tropics used to be 100 years ago. Since he wrote the book, 98% of the low land tropical dry forest have been deforested.
