The roof of Africa

Coulson, David

HOLT. RINEHART AND WINSTON

This is the story of a desert, and of one man's love affair with this remote and little-known wilderness in south-western Africa. David Coulson made a number of trips to the Namib over a 15-year period and kept diaries of his experiences. He describes the re-ochred nomads of Kaokoland, the wild thoroughbred horses of Garub, the unique reptiles of the sand dunes, eerie nights spent camping in ghost towns and on the shipwrecks which rear out of the dunes and exploring long-abandoned diamond towns. The many colour photographs which accompany the text also serve to convey the surreal beauty of this region.

The African landscape is littered with information about its prehistoric inhabitants, no more so than in its broad range of rock art. This large book forms one of the best and most comprehensive illustrated guides to the art containing almost 400 colour photographs and line drawings. Detailed discussions of the African land and its people, of the different styles, subjects and dating of the art, and the sites themselves, are followed by a regional study of examples. Includes stunning photographs of some of the most precious, and most threatened, art images in the world.
