Аннотация:

The Namib Desert extends as a narrow strip more than 1.800 km along the Atlantic coast, from Port Nolloth in South Africa through Namibia and up to the town of Namibe in Angola. This book is about a thrilling expedition crossing the multifarious Namib Desert visiting mystical places: prohibited diamond areas, ghost towns, ship wrecks, endless dune regions, virgin beaches, idiosyncratic fluvial topographies. A unique fauna and flora invites the reader to explore both new dimensions of the desert and enables encounters with the local population. An interesting journey that simultaneously provides a retrospective view of the times of explorers, colonisation and civil wars.
