"A brilliant book, filled with interesting facts, wonderfully written - and great fun to read."
Klaus Wunnemann, Director, Zoo Heidelberg
"One of the best books I have read in a long time, wrtitten out of a genuine lifeling passion for zoos and with unrivalled historical and zoological accuracy. I devoured every single page of it!"
Christoph Schwitzer, Director, Dublin Zoo
"Both the historical and the observational descriptions are simply marvellous, and the balance between the two excellent. Even in 20 years, when the overviews will be deemed out of date, the historical introductions will remain the standard. The book is as perfect as anyone could reasonably expect."
Herman Reichenbach, Archivist, Tierpark Hagenbeck
"An outstanding book, to be voraciously consumed!"
Lee Ehmke, Director, Houston Zoo
