About the Author
Christine Eckstrom is a former National Geographics writer and editor specializing in natural history. She collaborates with Frans Lanting on fieldwork, book, and other publishing projects from their home base in California. Dutch-born Frans Lanting has been hailed as one of the great nature photographers of our time. For the past two decades he has documented wildlife and our relationship with nature in environments from the Amazon to Antarctica. Exhibits of his photographs have been shown at major museums in Paris, Milan, Tokyo, New York, Madrid, and Amsterdam.
Review
"As a chronicler of natural history today, Frans Lanting is a singular extraordinary talent. He has the mind of a scientist, the heart of a hunter, and the eyes of a poet." National Geographic, Washington "This book is a personal interpretation of the penguins I met, rather than a natural history of all penguins," Frans Lanting writes. "I wanted to create an impression of who these penguins are and what they go through. I hope my work will be seen as an homage to the individual within them all." More bang for your buck! "...a fast-food, high-energy fix on the topic at hand." The New York Times Book Review"
