Reminded me of Africa January 28, 2008 van Breda Having visited South Africa, I have become interested in all things African. This book covers a lot of regions in pictures, and I am pleased with its presence on my coffee table. It makes me want to see even more of Africa.
Extremely beautiful, interesting book (and series). June 4, 2007 Lee Rubinstein 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book and the companion North and East volume are extraordinarily beautiful and offer images of a rich array of African homes -- traditional, contemporary and intermingled. The photography is excellent and offers images of architecture, art, landscapes and lives. Highly recommended.
