Synopsis
The idea for this book was to engage a writer and a photographer with the combined talents to create a book unlike any other on the human and natural history of East Africa-one of the world's last splendors and the greatest wildlife spectacle in the world. Usually working apart, and with no attempt to cover exactly the same terrain, Matthiessen and Porter roamed the ancient land of man's origins to create two parallel statements-one in words, the other in pictures-in one enduring book.
