Here is a photographic celebration of the world’s 18 species of penguin. Featuring breathtaking photographs of the world’s 18 species of penguin, ‘Mission Penguin’ takes you to many of the remotest places on earth, from the Falkland and Gal?pagos Islands, to the Antipodes Islands and Tristan da Cunha. Following the loss of her husband, Ursula Clare Franklin embarked on a personal mission to see and photograph every species of penguin in their natural habitats. The result is a remarkable showcase of penguins – hundreds of striking photographs accompanied by engaging text that details the penguins’ features and characteristics. Each chapter explores a new penguin species and details Ursula’s spectacular journey to see and photograph these much-loved birds. This book explores the difficulties all penguins face and how humanity’s actions have threatened their very existence.
