most inhospitable regions in<br />
the world belies its capacity to<br />
sustain an array of fascinating<br />
life forms – from the unique<br />
desert-adapted elephant and beetles to the delicate lichens that<br />
have evolved to survive in the planet’s oldest desert, the Namib.<br />
Its people, too, have learnt to thrive in the harsh environment of<br />
this scorched wilderness. This is Namibia brings to life the history,<br />
natural splendours, magnificent wildlife and diverse cultures of this<br />

a compelling insight into one of the world’s last true wilderness<br />
regions.<br />
