Book Description
A wonderful and original tribute to the curious, comical Dodo and the beautiful island of Mauritius. Award-winning Finnish photographer Harri Kallio creates the illusion that these fascinating creatures are alive and abundant, living as they once did in their own unspoiled haven, the island of Mauritius. Accompanied by a thorough history of this extraordinary bird, including eyewitness accounts and pictorial sources, the book was the winner of the 2004 European Publishers' Award for Photography.
