Ethiopia. Peoples of the Omo Valley

Magnificently produced, two-volume publication is a superb chronicle of the Omo Valley’s fast-vanishing and excruciatingly hard way of life, focusing on the fifteen or so tribes who live there. Silvester’s beautiful and fascinating photographs portray painted bodies, battles, hunts and children’s games, among other things, and are accompanied by a text that documents the culture and daily life of the Omo tribes.
