About this product

Product Information

Rhinoceros explores sources ranging from film and literature, to natural history description and exhibition, and asks whether the savagery of the rhino is a reality or a legacy of its mythic past. Well illustrated and persuasively argued, Rhinoceros will appeal to all enthusiasts eager to learn about the culture, history and nature of this animal, as well as specialists, from art historians to conservation biologists.

"The latest monograph in the winning Animal series-truly natural histories, each title a wide-ranging look at a single creature, replete with splendid illustrations-is perhaps the finest yet. Like its predecessors, this volume alternately informs, delights, moves, and astonishes. Success here owes as much to author as to subject. The former, a cultural and environmental historian, acquits herself admirably, distilling fact from fiction, employing supple and incisive prose, and trailing casual acumen in her measured wake."- Atlantic, The latest monograph in the winning Animal series-truly natural histories, each title a wide-ranging look at a single creature, replete with splendid illustrations-is perhaps the finest yet.
