Here, too, are many never-before published photographs from the collections of Isak Dinesen, her brother Thomas, and her great friend Denys Finch-Hatton, along with Peter Beard's superb photographic record of a world where--for perhaps the last time in history--true wilderness and true sophistication were one ("Very few matters," Isak Dinesen wrote Peter Beard shortly before her death. "could move me as deeply as your epitaph, or monument, over that Old Africa which was so dear to my heart. In your photographs I seem to receive a greeting from the fauna of the country").
