Natural History - Kepler's Staff Review

I love natural history museums. There are very few things that are as astonishing, as strange and wonderful, in quite the same way. It is impossible to duplicate the feeling of walking through cool, carefully lit halls and seeing examples of the natural world held so close and still that you can see the wear on a lion’s teeth and the velvety scales of a butterfly, but this book offers an entirely different experience that satisfies the same curiosity and provokes the same wonder.

Produced in conjunction with the Smithsonian, this is a guide and knowledgeable companion on a tour of several thousand of the world’s species. Each page is filled with stunningly detailed photographs set against a background of clean white paper and informational text. The book is large, so the images are big enough to satisfy the curious eye and filled with enough light and color to make close examination a serious pleasure. -- Megan K.
