The Annotated Malay Archipelago

Beschreibung

Wallace's Malay Archipelago is a classic account of the travels of a Victorian naturalist through island Southeast Asia. It has been loved by readers ever since its publication in 1869. Despite numerous modern reprints with appreciative introductions, this is the first annotated edition in English. This edition explains, updates and corrects the original text with an historical introduction and hundreds of explanatory notes.
