The Galapagos Islands have captured hearts and captivated imaginations for centuries. Such is their ecological importance that in 1978 the archipelago was declared the first ever World Heritage Site, a testament to our collective desire to preserve the magic and diversity that inspired Darwin. As President of the Galapagos Conservation Trust, Monty Halls is a passionate advocate for those fighting to save the Galapagos. Not content with campaigning from afar, Monty and his young family have spent two long summers living on the islands they love. Embracing the communities they encounter and working with the conservation teams that form the lifeblood of the archipelago, they have been in turn spellbound by the beauty of the islands and heartbroken by the devastation humankind is inflicting upon them. Written with warmth, authority, and heart, My Family and the Galapagos follows Monty and his family as they navigate life on the most important archipelago on the planet.
