Leopards and cheetahs embody the wild beauty of Africa. In this spectacular photographic study, the husband-and-wife team of distinguished naturalist, Christine and Michel Denis-Hout provide readers with a rare glimpse into the everyday lives of these compelling creatures. Their exceptional photography vividly brings to life the excitement of a young cheetah's first hunt, the languid relaxation of a leopard's midday nap, and the sheer strength and beauty of these glorious big cats in their natural habitat. The cheetah's legendary speed is documented in a series of exceptional photos, while the leopard's notorious stealth can be felt in depictions of it's sinuous descent from perch high in a tree. Everyday activities such as courting, grooming, and caring for their young are captured in unprecedented close-ups. The gleaming fangs of a yawning leopard, the intensity of a pouncing cheetah, and the golden grasses of the savannah trampled by a herd of retreating zebra are just some of the evocative sights conveyed in this book. Also available in this series are "The Art of Being"; "A Lion" (ISBN: 888095752X); "A Wolf" (ISBN: 8854400181); and "An Elephant" (ISBN: 8880959352).
