South African wildlife photographer, Adrian Bailey, has spent his entire working career to date documenting the desert, delta and Savannah ecosystems of Africa. After 10 years of field work he decided to publish a monograph of his best images from that time. This is a photographic portfolio of the wildlife he has come to know intimately during the course of his work. It must be stressed though, that this is not just another collection of African wildlife images gathered over a few months by an itinerant photographer on safari. Rather, as can be seen, this is a refreshingly different, dynamic collection of photography exposing the entire spectrum of life on this ancient stage, garnered from over 20 000 hours of fieldwork. All Bailey's best, award-winning images were made available to the project. The portfolio is presented as a hypothetical day in wild Africa. Each chapter is a collection of images revealing the slow unfolding and closing of the African day, organised under the headings Dawn, Day, Dusk and Night. In addition to a collection of outstanding stand-alone images, there is a series of mini-stories (e.g. migrations, dramatic kills, vital waterholes, etc.) , each gathered from different locations.

Fine in Near Fine jacket. The dust jacket is a touch edge worn, with a tiny closed tear on the top edge of the spine, but it remains bright, whole and intact. Likewise for the boards, which are resilient and strong. Internally, there are no markings or inscriptions, and the pages within are vibrant, crisp and complete. Tightly bound and presents handsomely in cellophane. JK.
