From the tiny steinbok to the bovine antelopes, this third volume gathers the horned ruminants of the world. Duncan sorts the great tribe of antelopes and their kin, describing the bush-bucks, water antelopes, and harnessed species with careful attention. Handsome, wide-ranging Victorian zoology. A rewarding volume for readers curious about the hoofed multitudes of plain and forest.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
