'Magnificent ... every compelling image gives us an intimate and exciting sense of walking alongside the photographer' - RA Magazine
'A treasure trove' - Andrew Motion, Guardian
'A fascinating book that can not only be enjoyed for itself but can be utilised as a great learning tool for the most difficult task of all – picture editing' - Black & White Photography
