Lords and Lemurs: Mad Scientists, Kings With Spears, and the Survival of Diversity in Madagascar
The second half was much more interesting than the first. The first half should have been condensed greatly. It's a great way to learn about a land that most people don't know anything about, but there wasn't enough talk about the lemurs. But there never really is, is there?
