THE late wildlife cameraman Nick Gordon once took his then 8-year-old daughter to his Amazon filming tower. Looking out across the canopy she said, 鈥淏ut dad, your films go down the TV tube in just 1 hour. Why don鈥檛 you make a photography book that lasts longer?鈥 This magnificent volume is the result. Stuffed with superb images, it also does us, the film-consuming public, the immense service of explaining the difficulties, dangers and dedication behind the images so easily seen from the sofa on a Sunday evening. A true picture of the rainforest that explains Gordon鈥檚 deep love affair with Amazonia.
