Reviews

This magnifient book, with pictures taken between 1969 and 2013, shows an old and splendid nation, whose glories are everyday and whose most commonplace activities seem to glitter and blaze when put beside our soft grey palette of Northern Europe.; With a pleasing lack of sentimentality these pages show you the country as she was seen in black and white, and years later in full colour. Ravishing, revelatory, original, compelling ... these are all words I shall sprinkle here, so that before you start turning the pages you will be prepared for the treat that awaits you. I am booking my journey to Ethiopia as I write; I suspect that many of you will soon be doing the same.; - from the foreword by Joanna Lumley
