'Modest, down to earth and full of humour, this is one of the best
books about filming I've ever read.' MICHAEL PALIN 'Extraordinary:
Gavin's easy prose and gasp-making encounters make for a gripping
and very funny read. It's a rollercoaster ride with a complete
professional. I loved it.' JOANNA LUMLEY '[Gavin is] a great
cameraman with infinite patience, but also a writer with great
powers of observation and expression. Brilliant!' ALAN TITCHMARSH
_________ From Gavin Thurston, the award-winning Blue Planet II and
Planet Earth II cameraman with a foreword by Sir David Attenborough
comes extraordinary and adventurous true stories of what it takes
to track down and film our planet's most captivating creatures.
Gavin has been a wildlife photographer for over thirty years.
Against a backdrop of modern world history, he's lurked in the
shadows of some of the world's remotest places in order to capture
footage of the animal kingdom's finest: prides of lions, silverback
gorillas, capuchin monkeys, brown bears, grey whales, penguins,
mosquitoes - you name it he's filmed it. Come behind the camera and
discover the hours spent patiently waiting for the protagonists to
appear; the inevitable dangers in the wings and the challenges
faced and overcome; and the heart-warming, life-affirming moments
the cameras miss as well as capture. What other readers are saying
about Journeys in the Wild: 'It's touching, it's thought provoking
and its emotional...Go pick it up. It's an absolute inspiration of
a book.' Goodreads 'Full of unbelievable anecdotes from decades of
work, some absolutely hilarious, this book left me in complete
wonder.' Goodreads 'An amazing read and I would heartily recommend
it to everyone I know.' Goodreads
