Publisher's Synopsis
This illustrated book takes the reader on a visual journey of discovery through a land of great diversity and natural beauty. It is aimed primarily at tourists who wish to see the best South Africa has to offer and photographs focus on those areas which travellers are most likely to visit. It shows South Africa as a nation of contrasts, from the lush subtropical forests of the Eastern Transvaal to the arid wildnerness of the far west, and the sun-drenched golden sands of its beautiful coastline to the remote peaks of forbidden mountain ranges. The country's scenic wonders are matched only by its spectacular diversity of animal and plant life, and the richness of its multicultural society.
