Sometime around 1980, Richard Adams took a tourist cruise ship to the Antarctic and then to New Zealand. It's a short book with lots of photographs. Adams is a nature lover so the focus is on the wildlife, mainly birds. They stopped at Scott's hut and Adams shows his age by remarking how the labels on the 80 year old food tins reminded him of his childhood. The highlight of the trip for him was when the ship was surrounded by dozens of breaching whales. They take Zodiac boats to shore and walk among the sea lions and penguins. On the way north they stop at Enderby Island which is still fresh in my memory from the classic Island of the Lost by Joan Druett, the descriptions match well how I recalled it. They stop at another island overrun by yes, rabbits. This might be a good book to take on such a trip, or in lieu of one, the age of it holds up fine and Adams is a gentle character.… (meer)

This is apparently *the* original rabbit behavior reference, but it's so completely dated (and the study methods are too!) that it was a bore to get through. The drawings were not conducive to understanding, and the author was so brief over some interesting bits. Stick with journal articles if you're interested.

this book has been mentioned as a source for "Watership Down". it is a competent look at the biography of Rabbits and some idea of their social structures. Quite interesting even if you haven't read the popular fantasy.
