In The New Noah, Gerald Durrell packs humour and love along with his nets, traps and mad schemes as he journeys across the world in search of animals for his zoo ---- hunting down, trading and often rescuing rare, beautiful animals. Ant-eaters, electric eels, porcupines, moustached monkeys, curassows, toucans, hairy frogs, the odd boa-constrictor.... all as pampered and fussed over as luxury cruise-liner guests aboard Gerald Durrell's arkcruise-ark. A fabulous treat for anyone with a taste for adventure.
