by Nigel Hicks
Published 1 November 2000
The National Parks and Other Wild Places of The Philippines is a prestigious souvenir for visitors to the Philippines, and a stunning introduction to the wildlife and landscapes of this extraordinary country. From multi-coloured reefs teeming with fish and corals, to smouldering volcanoes and dense rainforest harbouring many endemic animals and plants, the Philippines boasts an impressive and precious natural diversity. This evocative yet practical exploration of the country's wildlife and wilderness areas brings to life the natural splendour of these richly-endowed islands. With 310 magnificent photographs, all the major parks of the country are described. Specially drawn colour maps show each area's main features, and visitor information panels provide fully up-to-date details on access, accommodation, and activities including hiking, rafting, birdwatching, fishing and diving.
