Kohli, Eddy
Cuba - A Voyage in Images
New York: Rizzoli 1997. A Fine unmarked copy with VG dustjacket. A very large format volume. Cuba is a land of mystery at once antique and avant-garde closed and cosmopolitan a country of layers and contrasts. This luxurious book offers a look at a way of life that may soon disappear. A sharp observer photographer Eddy Kohli captures the spirit of the people work land and food in brilliant colour. Everyday images - light shining luminous thrugh the veins of a stretched tobacco leaf the tatooed trails of a man's weathered face - become familiar icons of this foreign place. The impressionistic photographic vision of this lovely country is complemented by a poetic essay about a journalist who in his visits to Cuba is given profound insight into the true meaning of life. Perhaps that meaning can be glimpsed in these pages. PLEASE NOTE: A LARGE HEAVY VOLUME OF 1.4 KILO UNPACKED WEIGHT WHICH MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL SHIPPING COST 1. First Edition. Hard Cover.

He also photographed civil rights workers in storefronts and church basements.

Through personal observation scientific theory and history David Quammen examines the mysteries of evolution and extinction and radically alters our understanding of the natural world and our place within it. In this landmark of science writing we learn how the isolation of islands makes them natural laboratories of evolutionary extravagance as seen in the dragons of Komodo the elephant birds of Madagascar the giant tortoises of the Galapagos. But the dark message of island studies is that isolated ecosystems whether natural or human-made are also hotbeds of extinction. ; Large 8vo 9" - 10" tall; 702 pages; Signed by Author .
