About Africa: A Biography of the Continent

"In Africa, the American nature photographer Art Wolfe returns to the dramatic vistas and astonishing animal life of the continent he has explored with affection and enthusiasm over many years. Whether they are close-up portraits of exotic animals and birds in their native habitats or sweeping panoramas of Africa's various eco-environments, Wolfe's full-colour images are exceptionally compelling. The reader can almost hear the sounds of herds moving across open plains, feel the intense heat in the air, or smell rain clouds advancing over enormous distances. With an introduction by the internationally-renowned naturalist Jane Goodall, five photographic portfolios introduced by the prominent American nature writer Michelle Gilders bring the African savannahs, woodlands, rainforest, wetlands and desert to life. Africa concludes with extensive notes describing in detail Wolfe's photographic technique and providing a glimpse of a master at work in the field."--BOOK JACKET.
