"Set mainly in northern Queensland and on the Great Barrier Reef, Noel Monkman's adventures are as varied as his curiousity is insatiable. He tells of the trapping of crocodiles, of wild pig hunting, of turtles and their ways; he delves into the strange habits of ant-lions, of cliff-dwelling bees, of hermit crabs, of the spider Nephila - all in a manner both vivacious and precise. And as an observer, above and below water, of the life of the sea the author can have few equals. Diving with an aqualung and a camera, Noel Monkman explores the coral reefs and the sea bed, observing the habits of marine creatures, and taking films that have become internationally famous. Then with his microscope, he reveals a fabulous world: animals and plants of intricate pattern, the rare beauty of the minute life that composes plankton." ; 182 pages; Signed by Author.…
