"Peter Pickford has captured the essence of each of the region's 81 species in a series of photographs both intimate and powerful. His patience as a photographer has been well rewarded, for many of the birds he has photographed are rare and infrequently seen by anyone other than the most dedicated or fortunate 'raptorphile'. He reveals the birds at their most natural: mating, rearing their young, grappling in flight for possession of prey . . . The approach of the book is deliberately evocative: to those who are unaware of the abundance and majesty of southern Africa's raptors, it should serve to awaken an abiding interest - to those already familiar with them, this book will be treasured as a stunning celebration of birds of prey.".…

4to; original blue boards, lettered in gilt on spine; laminated pictorial dustwrapper; pp. 144, incl. index. Dustwrapper very slightly foxed to reverse side, with short tear to top edge of lower panel. Near-fine condition. "The Himba are semi-nomadic pastoralists who live in Kaokoland in the remote north-western corner of Namibia. Their world is harsh, dry and starkly beautiful, sandwiched between the Namib Desert's forbidding Skeleton Coast and, until recently, the conflict between South Africa and Swapo. Today these people are under pressure as never before. In the early 1980s the worst drought in living memory killed more than 130 000 head of cattle in Kaokoland - two thirds of the stock. This, coupled with the effects and aftermath of the war, paints a bleak future for the Himba. The text introduces the Himba's world by means of evocatively described scenes from the past and present, most of which Margaret Jacobsohn has personally observed or participated in. The immediacy and integrity of her account together with Peter and Beverly Pickford's magnificent full-colour photographs provide a unique record of the 'ochre people of the dry river beds'.".…
