Reading List
An exhaustive list of reading materials, covering a very wide range of subjects, well ordered for easy browsing.  Headings include ecotourism, Darwin, natural history, birds, biogeography and more!  Our all time favourite (offered to us as a wedding present just before we left for Galapagos) is:  Song of the Dodo, by David Quammen.  This is an excellent introduction to island biogeography - a very enjoyable read, written by a journalist, part travel log, part popular science.  It helped us appreciate the process of speciation and extinction in Galapagos.  My husband read it three times while there.

The trip was fabulous.  I don’t think there was a part of it that could have been better.  Our guide was awesome - he was well educated in Galapagos specific wildlife and geology was expected, but he was also able to compare and contrast what we see at home.  He has a depth of experience/education that was not expected.
