Condition: Fine. 448, 16 col photos, 229 figs, 74 tables. . HB. Fine in d/w. Albatrosses are long-lived, oceanic seabirds which have long held a special affection amongst those who travel the oceans.

Fine in publishers cloth in like dustjacket. 448pp. Illustrated. After graduating in zoology and botany from Bangor University, Lance Tickell joined the British Antarctic Survey and spent two and a half years in the South Orkney Islands. A study of the Dove Prion formed the basis of an M.Sc. dissertation at the Edward Grey Institute in Oxford under David Lack, and research on albatrosses in South Georgia over the next six years gained him a Ph.D. His subsequent career included working for the Nature Conservancy in Shetland and Orkney, as a lecturer in various African universities, and as a producer of natural history television in Bristol.
