Exploration

[close] This reading group will focus on natural history. We will immerse ourselves within the realm of organisms as we explore the biodiversity of the planet. Discover and discuss animal species ranging from vertebrates such as birds and mammals to soft-bodied organisms such as mollusks, worms and jellies. We will journey throughout the world's biomes via ecological and evolutionary perspectives, the microscopic connections and the life histories of different species. Hopefully we will gain a better understanding of the numerous species we share the planet with. Environmental aspects and conservation measures are also important topics of interest in this group.

[close] I have been fascinated by Arctic exploration for years especially the Franklin Expedition. I have recently started re-reading my collection and have picked up a few new threads to read on. Looking to discuss non-fiction books and see others I may not have read yet. Particularly interested in exploration before the twentieth and late nineteenth century.
