The First Safari: Searching for François Levaillant by Ian Glenn tells of the 25-year search for Levaillant’s travel notebooks and his collection. Levaillant was our greatest naturalist and named more birds than any other ornithologist.
The book will appeal to all natural history lovers, to researchers on colonialism and criticism of it, and to people interested in birding who want to know more about Levaillant’s role in establishing ornithology as a new discipline.
