Sinossi
Durante gli anni '70 e '80, peter matthiessen prese parte a numerose spedizioni in africa, osservando in prima persona i numerosi e diversi popoli e la fauna selvatica del continente. I frutti di questi viaggi sono tre dei saggi più impressionanti sul mondo naturale della fine del ventesimo secolo. The tree where man was born documenta paesaggi selvaggi, popoli e animali, osservati in una serie di viaggi nell'africa orientale, dal sudan, a sud attraverso uganda, kenya e tanzania, esplorando il serengeti, il maasai mara, il cratere di ngorongoro e i siti archeologici della rift valley. African silences racconta due spedizioni effettuate nell'africa occidentale e centrale, tra cui lo zaire (come si chiamava allora), il gabon e la repubblica centrafricana. Sand rivers descrive la riserva di caccia di selous nella tanzania meridionale, uno dei più grandi, ma meno conosciuti rifugi per animali rimasti sulla terra, e fornisce un ritratto indimenticabile di questa zona e degli uomini feroci e solitari che l'hanno creata. Queste tre opere classiche rappresentano matthiessen il naturalista al suo meglio; ha scritto un libro che trasmette curiosità e conoscenza a tutto tondo, dando vita alle persone, ai luoghi e alla fauna selvatica che incontra, e che è stato aggiornato con una nuova introduzione dell'autore.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. During the 1970s and 1980s, Peter Matthiessen took part in a number of expeditions to Africa, witnessing first-hand the continents many and diverse peoples and wildlife. The fruits of these journeys are three of the most impressive essays on the natural world of the late twentieth century. The Tree where Man Was Born documents wild landscapes, peoples and animals, observed in a series of journeys in East Africa, from the Sudan, south through Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania, exploring the Serengeti, the Maasai Mara, the Ngorongoro crater and the archaeological sites of the Rift Valley. African Silences recounts two expeditions made to West and Central Africa, including Zaire (as it then was), Gabon and the Central African Republic. Sand Rivers describes the Selous game reserve in Southern Tanzania, one of the largest, but least-known refuges for animals left on earth, and provides an unforgettable portrait of this area and the fierce, lonely men who created it. These three classic works represent Matthiessen the naturalist at his finest; written an all-encompassing curiosity and knowledge that brings alive the people, places and wildlife he encounters, and updated with a new introduction by the author. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Codice articolo GOR001980165
