Condition: New. Ergun Cagatay's images transport us from the oasis cities of Bukhara and Samarkand to the vast frozen wastes of Siberia. In the 1990s, as the Cold War thawed, Cagatay set out to capture the drama and immensity of the Turkic-speaking world, the spirit of its peoples and their colourful lives and beliefs. While fearless horsemen jostle with eagle hunters, ice-fishermen and reindeer herders, gorgeously dressed women throng desert bazaars, sing to the heavens and speak to the spirit world. The award-winning author Caroline Eden's evocative text opens a window on this unreported world. Editors: Translator: 152 pages. Seller Inventory # B2012343
