"African Insect Life" introduces the reader to the more than 100,000 insect species found in Africa - from the cool heath lands of the Cape to West Africa's dense forests. In this edition, Dr John Ledger has fully revised Dr S.H. Skaife's original text to incorporate the findings of modern research. Two new chapters contribute background information on the arthropod relatives of African insects and introduce the reader to the fascinating hobbies of insect collecting, study and photography.

Africa has a wonderfully rich store of folk tales that have been passed down from one generation to the next. There are stories about how the world came into being, stories that tell of the relationships between human beings and between man and his environment, and of the lessons to be learned from everyday experience. The tales are like the fairy tales told all over the world, but they have a strong African flavour that is as real as the smell of rain on the hot earth. These tales take the reader into an enchanted world where animals can talk and humans are often changed into different forms, magic is commonplace and reality is turned delightfully on its head. Despite numerous setbacks, things usually turn out all right in the end. Wicked and greedy people (and animals) come off worst and the good receive their just rewards. The gods are stern but fair, and every story has a moral for those who are wise enough to see it.

The Best of African Folklore

Savory, Phyllis

With more than 900 bird species known to occur, southern Africa is one of the richest avifaunal areas in the word. It is not surprising, therefore, that THE COMPLETE BOOK OF SOUTHERN AFRICAN BIRDS is one of the biggest single volumes ever to be published on the natural history of the region. Leading bird photographers have contributed the more than 1,000 color photographs featured in the book's 760 pages. Each photograph has been carefully chosen to show to best advantage the outstanding or characteristic features of that particular species. This truly impressive collection compiled by pictures editor Geoff McIlleron, includes some showing extremely rare migrants. For the few species for which suitable photographs were unavailable, paintings by well-known bird illustrator Graeme Arnott were commissioned. The text for THE COMPLETE BOOK OF SOUTHERN AFRICAN BIRDS was written by ornithologists, many of them world authorities, with valuable contributions by amateurs who have extensive field experience. The individual species entries give a general account of the bird, followed by details of its distribution and occurrence within the region, points for field recognition (such as appearance, voice and behavior), food and feeding methods, and breeding biology. A map showing the bird's latest recorded distribution in the region is provided for the majority of species. Also included are special, illustrated sections on the origin, evolution and behavior of birds in general, and bird habitats and distribution in Southern Africa.

This work is a revised and updated work, with 36 additional descriptions and 12 colour illustrations incorporated. Features detailed in formation on all known butterflies in the Southern African region: their description; distribution; habitat; habits; and larval foods. The illustrations of all known species and subspecies are mostly life-size. Forty detailed life history paintings by Gowan Clarke are included. This second edition also features facsimile reproductions of the 20 radio talks given by Ken Pennington in 1965; and short biographies on some of the colourful personalities amongst Southern African lepidopterists such as George Arnold and Margaret Fountaine who shook off her conventional Victorian upbringing to travel the world, inspiring two books and having four butterflies named after her.
