For centuries, the Galapagos Islands have held the hearts and captivated imaginations of people worldwide. Their ecological significance is so great that in 1978, they were designated as the first-ever World Heritage Site, a testament to our collective desire to protect the magic and diversity that inspired Charles Darwin. Monty Halls first visited the islands nearly two decades ago, and his immediate fascination with their wild beauty would shape the rest of his life.
As an explorer, marine biologist, ex-Royal Marine, and now President of the Galapagos Conservation Trust, Monty is a passionate advocate for those fighting to save the Galapagos. In 2017, he and his dedicated research team, consisting of his wife, Tam, and their two young daughters, Molly and Isla, moved to Santa Cruz to experience the life of the world's most spectacular tourist destination. As weeks turned into months, the Halls family was spellbound by the beauty of the islands and heartbroken by the devastation caused by humans. One stint there was never enough, and just two years later, they returned, this time staying on one of the remotest and most challenging islands, immersing themselves in the culture of the Galapagos and the desperately needed conservation work taking place there.
Written with warmth, humor, and authority, My Family and the Galapagos follows Monty and his family as they navigate life on the most important archipelago on the planet and strive to preserve it for generations to come.
