Every Penguin in the World tracks author-photographer Charles Bergman’s forays around the southern hemisphere – from the Galapagos to South Africa to the Antarctic – in his quest to see all 18 species of penguins in the world. The sections of the book are organised around themes of adventure, science and conservation, and pilgrimage – in which stories of each penguin species will be touched upon.

This endearing and thought-provoking book beautifully combines narrative and photography to capture the plight and the experience of penguins worldwide. The author and his wife developed a passion after seeing their first penguin species and have since spent years traveling far and wide to see each variety of penguin in its natural habitat.
