This is an introduction into David Attenborough’s career and how his first expeditions were to collect new species of animals, and keep them alive for transport back to London Zoo. This book details three such exhibitions, to Guyana, Indonesia and Paraguay. This book was delightful, insightful and inspiring.
Sir David Attenborough’s career as a pioneer documentary filmmaker and advocate for understanding the natural world spans more than fifty years, including his recent film, Planet Earth.
In 1954, a young television presenter was offered the opportunity of a lifetime – to travel the world finding rare and elusive animals for London Zoo’s collection, and to film the expeditions for the BBC. His name was David Attenborough, and the program, ZOO QUEST, not only heralded the start of a remarkable career in broadcasting, but changed the way we viewed the natural world forever. Written with his trademark wit and charm, ZOO QUEST is not just the story of a remarkable adventure, but of the man who made us fall in love with the natural world, and who is still doing so today.
