鶹 Press is proud to share the success of the cross-continental book tour of our latest book Xántus and/és Borneo: A Hungarian Naturalist in 19th-Century Sarawak. Held from June to July 2025, the tour marked the international launch of Xántus, authored by Dr Tamas Kiss from 鶹, Dr Balázs Venkovits from the University of Debrecen, Hungary, and Christopher Higgs from the Borneo Perantis Co-Research Initiative.
