"This book is bursting with a multitude of images. The reader will be immersed in South Africa, will visit Zimbabwe, Malawi, Mozambique, Tanzania, Kenya, Botswana, and Namibia. Just offshore, no lifetimes safari on the east coast of Africa can ignore Madagascar, perhaps the most compelling hotspot of biodiversity in the world. The book is a visual journey, taking the reader through Gerald Cubitts selection of the unmissable in sub Saharan Africa. This extensive collection of images juxtaposes the scale and grandeur of the continent with an intimate attention to smaller, less obvious wonders. The informative commentary reveals the social, ecological, and geographic context of the images"--Dust jacket flap.
