The Pantanal of Brazil, Bolivia & Paraguay is South Americas Serengeti: its wetlands are the largest on earth (theyre half the size of France) &, in the dry season, crocodiles & storks jostle to gobble the last of the dying fish. Here, the continents largest cat, the jaguar, lives alongside giant otters, anacondas & the worlds largest parrot.

A comprehensive introduction to the best place to watch wildlife in South America, & beautifully illustrated throughout, Bradts Pantanal Wildlife is the only portable book to cover all the main wildlife groups while focussing exclusively on the Pantanal. Bradts fully illustrated wildlife guides focus on regions of the world particularly celebrated for their amazing & often unique species. With spectacular photography or exclusive watercolour drawings throughout, each visitors guide provides an introduction to the regions principal flora & fauna alongside suggested wildlife itineraries, practical information on when to go & what to take & photography tips.

Written in a deliberately engaging way, they offer something different from dry field guides, & will appeal to the interested layman as much as the wildlife devotee. Ideal as a lightweight companion to any wildlife trip they also make a handsome souvenir.

Panther

In most people's opinion, the German Panther tank was the most elegant tank design of World War II. It embodied a balance of firepower, armor protection, and mobility unmatched by any other tank of the period. Yet, it was not the war-winner it might have been. Author Mike Green examines the disparity between the potential of the Panther design and the actuality of the fielded Panther tank in this new book. Though many viewed the Panther as an engineering masterpiece and a technological breakthrough, it failed to meet expectations on the battlefield, and thus proved a major setback to Hitler's dreams of world domination. Green explores the evolution, and devolution, of the Panther, providing keen insight and new reasons for its ultimate failure.
