'Desert Adventure describes a year-long journey, made by wilderness artist Paul Augustinus, through the rich diversity of desert landscapes of the Namib and the Kalahari. Infused with the spirit of adventure, it is an odyssey in search of southern Africa's last remnants of unspoiled and untamed wilderness. Paul's own story is enlivened and given substance by the inclusion of narratives from the explorers of the past, one of whom described travelling in Africa as requiring "the endurance of a camel and the courage of a lion". Lavishly illustrated by the author's paintings, photographs, and pencil sketches of animals and birds in their natural settings, as well as by detailed maps, this desert adventure is for all to experience and to treasure.'
