The Library After Dark

Natural History

The Malay Archipelago, Volume 1

by Alfred Russel Wallace

Wallace’s eight years of travel through the islands of Southeast Asia combine field notes, wildlife and changing coastlines. Read with an awareness that this nineteenth-century European account reflects its author’s perspective. The places and people he describes had lives and histories beyond the expedition.
