About the Author
Kazuyoshi Nomachi was born in Japan in 1946. After graduating from high school, he went on to study photography under Takashi Kajima, before becoming freelance in 1971. He is the author of several books of photographs and essays, including The Nile, Bless Ethiopia and Mecca and Medina. Known for his exhaustive research and field-work, Nomachi has exhibited his work internationally and he has won numerous prizes. His photographs have also been published in Life, National Geographic, Die Stern and elsewhere. One of Britain's most distinguished desert explorers, Michael Asher was born in 1953. He has covered more than 16,000 miles by camel, speaks fluent Arabic and lived with a nomadic tribe in the Sudan for three years. Together with his wife, he made the first-ever west-east crossing of the Sahara on foot and with camels - a journey of nine months and 4,500 miles - and one of the most remarkable of recent expeditions. Michael Asher is the author of five books on the Sahara, the Sudan and the Arab world.
