THE TRIALS OF LIFE - DAVID ATTENBOROUGH - COLLINS - BBC - 1990

Second Hand: Collins FIRST EDITION dust jacket hardcover (see image), free tracking number, clean text, solid binding, slight gentle shelf wear / storage-wear 'Trials of Life' is another superb book by Attenborough looking at animal and plant behaviour that aids in their survival. Like all of his books, his style is extremely easy to read and you are soon drawn into the fascinating lives of the various animals he describes. Throughout the book, you get one page of text and another full page of the most stunning photography you are ever likely to see and occasionally you'll get a double spread for a particularly impressive image. This looks at animal behavior in relation to eating, reproduction, fighting, finding shelter, making friends and a whole range of other traits besides. As part of the Attenborough collection, this can't be missed, but it is well worth a look in its own right and makes for a couple of days of informative and completely engrossing reading. The wonder of nature has rarely been so well presented, and yet we've become used to that from Attenborough and anything less would be a letdown.
