The Lonely Islands: How NZ evolved in isolation

The Lonely Islands: How NZ evolved in isolation Terry Thomsen has written a book that digs deep into how New Zealand's unique native life came to be. It's called The Lonely Islands: The evolutionary phenomenon that is New Zealand. It looks at New Zealand's Gondwanan origins and its separation, the impact of the mass extinction event 66 million years ago, ice ages and how its plants and animals evolved in isolation at the bottom of the world.
