When Philip Kohler left his native South Australia in 1955, his sights were firmly set on the UK, yet his continued appetite for travel eventually led him to Northern Rhodesia - a move that would ultimately see him fulfil a deeply held desire to complete a solo crossing of the Sahara desert. With only his thoughts and the mechanical outpourings of his Series II Land Rover for company, Kohler spent three years traversing his way across a remarkable continent that was in the midst of revolution and change - documenting his journey with his trusted Leica camera - before arriving back in London in the latter half of 1962. The adventure provided not just new experiences, but also shaped the rest of his professional life - his photographic ability, as well as a chance encounter with John Wayne, resulting in a hugely successful career in the international film industry. Lavishly illustrated with the beautiful photographs that he took along the way, and written by award-winning author Martin Port, this new book from Porter Press International tells the story of Philip Kohler and his trans-African Land Rover.
