A large portion of the jacket is moisture stained, however the staining is primarily only noticeable on the reverse. The veneer of the front panel is rippled near the spine. From the dust jacket- "As comfortable in the bush as he is in Manhattan's hottest nightclubs, Peter Beard is a throwback to an earlier, more adventurous age. Photographer, writer, diarist, anthropologist, historian, and socialite- he has led the kind of wild, rugged life fictionalized by Conrad and Hemingway. A man of extremes, excesses, and contradictions, Beard has made Kenya his home for more than thirty years. And in those years he has had one continuous obsession: chronicling the devastation of nature in East Africa.".

''Fasciné par l'Afrique et par les textes de Karen Blixen, Peter Beard a vingt-quatre ans lorsqu'il s'installe au Kenya. Il y développera une oeuvre d'une exceptionnelle originalité. Par ses photographies de grands fauves, de crocodiles et d'éléphants, par ses images d'un pays dont il vit le tragique au quotidien, dans sa pureté et dans sa sauvagerie, par son journal enfin où il mêle en un gigantesque collage les témoins de son "africanité" et les souvenirs d'une vie civilisée qu'il ne renie pas, Peter Beard est un cas unique dans l'histoire de la photographie contemporaine.''
