Reprising the years-long, in-depth collaboration that produced much of National Geographic magazineIs coverage of southern Africa, award-winning photographer Chris Johns and veteran foreign correspondent Peter Godwin present this important critical exploration of the regions myriad facets and its collisions between tradition and modernity, conservation and development, and people and animals. In evocative photographs and accompanying anecdotal text, Wild at Heart criscrosses southern Africafrom the Kalahari Desert and Drakensburg Mountains to the Skeleton coast and Zambesi Riverto reveal its diverse populations and wildlife and highlight their often unacknowledged interdependence. Johnss superb photographs of wildlife, including cheetahs, rhinos, elephants, and his sensitive portraits of Himba pastoralists, San Bushmen hunter-gatherers, Zulu farmers, and other populations are combined with Godwins passionate, lyric stories that both entertain and enlighten. The result is a finely detailed yet panoramic image of southern Africa that underscores the indissoluble connections between all its elements and speculates on the prospects for a future based on understanding those connections. Beautifully presented in a unique, oversize format with a top-opening spine that allows gallery-quality presentation of the images, Wild at Heart is destined to become a classic.
