THE DYNASTY OF ABU

by Ivan T. Sanderson ‧ RELEASE DATE: Nov. 5, 1962

A whopper of a book on the ""history and natural history of the elephant and his relatives"", this takes you all the way from paenungulates, gomphotheres and mastodon to the existing members of the species today. The nature and origin of the Abu, the relationship to man, their character and intelligence, their everyday life in their wild state, provide an impressive picture of the species. Those who have followed Sanderson's previous works on monkeys, mammals and whales will be pleased with this addition.
