"Mirella Ricciardi is one of the greatest photographers of the African continent. Whether you have lived in or traveled to Africa, plan to take a trip there, or simply wish that you could, this book will captivate you. This highly personal account of Ricciardi's life in Africa from the 1920s to the present day is part diary, part reminiscence, and part photographic album. She shows you the great African character from George Adamson to Peter Beard, and the Hollywood stars, animal trainers, models, and fashion photographers who all became part of her extended family. However, it's her greatest love--the tribal warriors and the panoramic landscapes of Africa--that take center stage here. Anyone who enjoys traveling, photography, and tales of faraway places will appreciate this enduring record of a beautiful and enthralling continent. / Born to Franco-Italian parents in a palatial house on the banks of lake Naivasha in Kenya, Mirella Ricciardi had an idyllic upbringing with her brother and sister Oria who later married the African anthropologist, Ian Douglas-Hamilton. A photographer from her teens she quickly became a highly acclaimed magazine photographer, much in demand from anything from war reporting to fashion photography." - Publisher.. 1st. Hardcover.
