The book presents 60 "species" from the imagination of author and
illustrator, A.W. Bainbridge, taken from a fictional manuscript by
the Reverend Jackson Whitehead, who served aboard the HMS
Pica--sister ship to the Beagle--during Charles Darwin's famous
voyage in the 1830s. The menagerie of beasts, fish, fowl, and
invertebrates, all created from traditional typefaces, numerals,
and punctuation marks, ranges from the Bracket Spider or "Hanging
Parentheses," which traps its prey by encasing them in its finely
bracketed web, to the Comma Cat, identifiable by its very short
pause.
