First edition (publ. Rupert Hart-Davis)

The Whispering Land is an autobiographical account of the 8 months Gerald Durrell spent travelling in Argentina during the late 1950s,[1] collecting animals for his then recently founded Jersey Zoo.[2] The book is divided into two parts. In the first, Durrell travels south from Buenos Aires to the arid scrublands of Patagonia; in the second he is based at a small town in the north western province of Jujuy.
