Travels in Taiwan

This book of photographs complements the classic travel book Travels in Taiwan: Exploring Ilha Formosa--on six separate and arduous trips, the author deliberately headed for the areas of Taiwan neglected by other travel journalists in a singular feat of endurance and sustained curiosity. The engaging and lively account of his solitary journey abounds in descriptions of local geography and wildlife and includes numerous encounters with Native (indigenous) Taiwanese people. Gary Heath made a photographic record of his travels and the best of previously unpublished and unseen images from the archive has gone into this fascinating photo essay. From the north to the far south and the outlying islands, all areas of Taiwan are covered.
