It soon became clear that Africa was far more than political
skulduggery, starving refugees and mind-numbingly overcrowded
cities. It was also full of the most astounding creatures on earth
that did the damnest things. Did you know that albatrosses use
howling jet streams to criss-cross the planet? Or that dams cause
earthquakes? Or maybe that most seahorses dance at dawn?" the
author writes in the preface of this extraordinary title. This
title, which is drawn from the author's monthly columns for
"Getaway" on natural history, is full of humour, detail and
speculation. It moves between disciplines as "nature's many quirks"
are revealed and "startlingly large questions are dredged from
little things ordinary folk pass over with hardly a glance.
