"Carlo Mari has followed these animals for ten years and watched them stampeding relentlessly from one horizon to another in vast unbroken columns. His photographs capture the dynamism and courage of the herds, their innate rhythms, their conquest of new spaces and their determination to survive and propagate. Covering the whole of African wildlife, these images, accompanied by Harvey Croze's fascinating and authoritative text , reveal the precarious equilibrium in which all of these animals live. The great migration offers us a glimpse of the continuum of life, a circle of birth and death, a mysterious journey without beginning or end.
