Quotes:
Excerpt from a review of the book, Natural History of the Antarctic Peninsula:
"...The numerous illustrations of artist Lucia deLeiris are superb. For four months she lived in Antarctica, and her work conveys those special sensations as well as deep feelings of appreciation that developed from her field observations. Recommended for naturalists and for college and university students of biology."
J.G. Hoff, Southeastern Massachusetts University/ American Library Association.
