Publisher's Synopsis

First published in 2005. Written as an account of the Percy Sladen Trust Expeditions to the New Hebrides in 1992-3 and 1927, this is one of the first detailed studies of the flora and fauna of these distant islands. Fully illustrated with maps and figures, this book describes the native Hebrideans and the reasons for their depopulation. The author, a biologist and zoologist, details the insect, avian and mammalian inhabitants of the islands and their behaviours.
