Published to coincide with the International Polar Year, ” Vanishing World” is an unprecedented visual record of life in the Arctic. Five years in the making, this book is both a celebration of the wildlife that inhabits this harsh & unforgiving climate & a cautionary tale of global warming.

Set against a dramatic landscape of ice floes & ragged mountains, readers will see the polar bears, foxes, seals, walruses & reindeers, who now struggle to live in this vulnerable climate. Images of a polar bear mother as she takes her newborns out for their first hunt, a seal pup only hours old, the spectacle of the polar night & the majesty of the glaciers & pack ice are a reminder of what is at risk. Mireille de la Lez`s stunning photographs are accompanied by text that explains the precarious nature of life in this dramatic climate. No one who sees the images of this vanishing world will be unmoved. ...
