Hardcover. Condición: Near fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very good. "In 2001, Nick Brandt embarked on an ambitious photographic project, a trilogy of books memorializing the fast-disappearing natural grandeur of East Africa. Focusing on some of the world's last great populations of large mammals - elephants, giraffes, lions, gorillas and their kin - he created two of the twenty-first century's most popular photographic books: the instant bestsellers On This Earth (2005) and A Shadow Falls (2009).

A near fine copy in the original acetate dust jacket, which is unevenly toned and a bit edgeworn.…
