A colorful overview of the Okavango,
By
This review is from: Okavango: Africa's Wetland Wilderness (Hardcover)
Adrian Bailey spent a year in the Okavango Delta of Botswana in order to photograph this remarkably attractive place. The result is a collection of very inviting color photos that do a superb job of capturing the flavor of the flora and fauna of the area. The text of the book tells the story of the formation of the Okavango Delta as well as describing the daily life of many of its inhabitants.This book is not intended to be a guidebook for those who want to tour the Okavango. For that I recommend Duncan Butchart's "Wildlife of the Okavango: Common Animals and Plants", a pocket-sized guide that does a good job of covering about 99% of what you are likely to see on a short trip to the region. Bailey's book is more for those who either want a visual tour for getting better acquainted with the Okavango Delta or better yet as a souvenir for those who have visited it. The book is of medium-large size and 176 pages in length. There are pictures on every page and the quality of the photographs is first rate. |
