This is an incredible book about Gorillas and their habitat. The book is full of interesting information, but the stunning pictures make it a must have. Anyone with any interest in Gorillas should have this book in their library.

A superb and up to date account of the mountain gorilla. The pictures alone are worth the price of admission!! The text is excellent and detailed but very readable for all. I have read a lot of books on the mountain gorilla and I have enjoyed them all, but I must say, that this is one of the best.

Very informational book, the photographs are amazing. Definitely a great book to have on your coffee table and a fabulous conversation starter.

This book is one of the most informational book about Gorillas I've ever read. The pictures are stunning and I would recommend this book to anyone looking to understand more about this rare and beautiful species.

This book is full of photos that draw you in to the world of mountain gorillas. Their story is really amazing and Eckhart and Lanjouw tell it well. This book is great for anyone who enjoys good photography or is looking for a great cause to get behind.

There are plenty of text heavy books on the market about African wildlife, and many with pretty pictures that give a sense of place without any real information about the wildlife or the challenges faced by the continent's animals.

This book manages to combine both. It has pertinent information about conservation but is not all grim reading, enlivened by Gene Eckhart's superb photography.

If you are heading to Central Africa to see the gorillas, this is the book you simply must have.

In February of this year I was "up the mountain" visiting the Gorillas and it was absolutely wonderful, so I was wanting a book that I could relate to in text and pictures and this is it. An amazing book. I can show parts of this book to people and say, "I was there"!! The photography is brilliant. Thank you.

This is an amazing book especially for the price. It is full of beautiful photos and information. This is by far the best book on Gorillas I have seen.
