The book of antelopes, vol. 3 (of 4)
Philip Lutley Sclater and Oldfield Thomas
The blackbuck spirals its horns above the Indian plains, and the impala pours in leaping herds across the veld. Sclater's third antelope volume covers these fleet and famous species with plate after plate of detail. A rich chapter on some of the most beautiful animals of Africa and Asia. Race alongside the blackbuck and the pallah in full flight.
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.
