More DescriptionA compilation of three previous releases following David Attenborough's early career. Specially recorded for audio, his adventures are sometimes life-threatening, often hilarious, and always totally absorbing. The warmth and enthusiasm that have made him a broadcasting legend are instantly apparent here as he recounts his magical journeys. The selections include: *Zoo Quest For A Dragon: This installment takes us back to one of David's earliest projects, when the BBC and London Zoo joined forces on several animal-collecting expeditions in Indonesia. (3 CDs); *Quest In Paradise: David tells of being an onlooker at a formal love-making ceremony, seeing the skills of ritual axe making, trying to master pidgin English, and witnessing a sing song at which hundreds of tribesmen came together from all parts of New Guinea. (3 CDs); and *Quest Under Capricorn: This volume recounts his expedition to Australia in search of rare species. (3 CDs)
