Nature Unpacked is the ultimate travelling companion for those visiting the southern African bush – whether for the first time or for the tenth.

Identification of common trees and shrubs is made simple by way of easily accessible descriptions and close-up representative images.

Insider's guide is a field guide that shows readers the best places to photograph wildlife in South Africa. Much of the information regarding good wildlife photography is localised or knowledge specific to a certain area. This title allows people to gain insight as to where the best places are to photograph elephants in the Kruger Park, where you can easily find leopards, what time the sand grouse drink in the morning and a better place than Boulders Beach to photograph penguins. With stunning photography coupled with simple easy-to-read chapters, Insider's guide is a gem for nature enthusiasts.

A landscape of insects and other invertebrates is a stepping stone in the process of documenting and conserving South Africa's huge diversity of insect life.

Celebrating South Africa's wondrous landscapes and ecology, this book is a must for tourists, nature lovers, students, farmers and conservation agencies visiting the region. All will find something of interest and beauty here.
