ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 2009). 2009 1st edition. 8vo (160 x 242mm). Ppxii,305. B/w photographs, map. Green and cream boards, spine titled in gilt. A fine copy in slightly shelf-worn dust-wrapper. "Finally, the world's leading authority on the extinct Labrador d…uck, Dr. Glen Chilton, shares the story of the mysterious bird - a saga wherein he sets out to examine the remains of every Labrador duck, conduct genetic analysis on every Labrador duck egg, and visit every site where the duck was shot .with many a (mis)adventure along the way. .More elusive than the passenger pigeon, the dodo, or the great auk, and breeding in places so obscure that no certain records exist of its nests, the Labrador duck succumbed to extinction almost before anyone realized it was in decline. When Chilton began his travels there were thought to be approximately fifty stuffed specimens scattered among the museums of Europe and North America. However, as his search progressed, it became clear that some specimens had been lost to war and theft while others lay hidden in far-flung collections, overseen by secretive curators." Chilton finally did succeed in seeing every single specimen known to be in existence, but only after travelling the equivalent of 3.3 times around the earth in order to do it. A good read, with much useful information on a hitherto rather obscure subject. .

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. The Curse of the Labrador Duck follows bird biologist Glen Chilton in his obsessive attempt to uncover the mysteries of one of the world's most enigmatic birds. In an unexpectedly zany adventure that took the author the equivalent of 3.3 times around the world, the result is a tale of theft…, wartime atrocities, insane millionaires, intrigue in the Middle East, and skinny dipping. The Labrador Duck is often mentioned in the same breath as the Passenger Pigeon, the Dodo, and the Great Auk--great species that once roamed the planet. The Labrador Duck became extinct somewhere around 1875. It is the most enigmatic bird in North America, partially because it bred so far north that no record exists of its breeding, and partially because it became extinct almsot before we noted it was in decline. The Curse of the Labrador Duck chronicles Chilton's adventures while attempting to examine every stuffed specimen of the species, do genetic analysis of every Labrador Duck egg, and visit every North American site where the duck was shot. When Chilton began his investigation, there were thought to be about fifty specimens scattered amongst the museums of Europe, North America, and the Middle East. However, as his study advanced, it was clear that some specimens had been lost to war and theft, and others were secreted away in far-flung collections overseen by miserly curators. After travelling the equivalent of more than three times around the world, Chilton was able to examine what amounted to fifty-five specimens in total, although one turned out to be a forgery and several others had been tampered with by unscrupulous taxidermists. Regrettably, genetic analysis showed that none of the eggs attributed to the Labrador Duck were genuine, even those that had escaped the bombing of Dresden. On the positive side, the author earned numerous hangovers, swam naked in a glacier-fed stream, dined with Russian gangsters, and was able to narrowly avoid arrest in New York City. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
