Bat Detectors
Clara, Europe's first rhinoceros, was the favourite attraction of kings and queens from one side of the continent to the other.
"In this enjoyable little book, Ridley shows how, in the age of Enlightenment, as observation clashed with classical authority, scholars flocked to Clara while the public came to gaze in simple a we on God's marvellous creation. Clara seems to have won the affections of everyone who saw her. This is a worthy tribute to a remarkable creature who should not be forgotten." - Edwina Currie, New Statesman, 12/07/2004
