Customer Reviews

A coffee-table book to rank with the best.
Over the years there have been many "coffee-table" books on Tanzania and East Africa. This work rates with the best of them. The photographs manage to cover the huge panorama of life in Tanzania, in both the human and animal domains. The accompanying text is accurate and amusing, demonstrating Mercer's in depth knowledge of the people and the wildlife. Well worth the money!!
