'With charm, erudition, humour and passion, the world's favourite
natural history broadcaster documents some of his expeditions from
the late 1950s onwards' Sunday Express Following the success of the
original Zoo Quest expeditions, the young David Attenborough
embarked on further travels in a very different part of the world.
From Madagascar and New Guinea to the Pacific Islands and the
Northern Territory of Australia, he and his cameraman companion
were aiming to record not just the wildlife, but the way of life of
some of the indigenous people of these regions, whose traditions
had never been encountered by most of the British public before.
From the land divers of Pentecost Island and the sing-sings of New
Guinea, to a Royal Kava ceremony on Tonga and the ancient art of
the Northern Territory, it is a journey like no other. Alongside
these remarkable cultures he encounters paradise birds, chameleons,
sifakas and many more animals in some of the most unique
environments on the planet. Written with David Attenborough's
characteristic charm, humour and warmth, Journeys to the Other Side
of the World is an inimitable adventure among people, places and
the wildest of wildlife. 'Abundantly good' TLS 'A wondrous reminder
of Attenborough's pioneering role . . . full of delightful tales'
Daily Express 'An adventure that sparked a lifetime's commitment to
the planet' The Lady 'Attenborough is a fine writer and
storyteller' Irish Times
