Autorenporträt
Since the debut of his international bestseller The Blue Day Book, Bradley Trevor Greive has become a household name in more than 115 countries. A former Australian paratrooper, BTG left the army to pursue more creative misadventures. He has been bitten by wild monkeys and rabid bats and was accepted into Russia's cosmonaut training program--though those incidents were, by and large, unrelated. BTG spends most of his time in a tiny Tasmanian hamlet. Mitsuaki Iwago is among the world's foremost wildlife photographers. For over 20 years he has taken award-winning images in more than 70 countries, and his work has appeared in numerous magazines, including National Geographic. He is the author of over a dozen books, including the worldwide best-sellers Serengeti: Natural Order on the African Plain, Mitsuaki Iwago's Whales, Mitsuaki Iwago's Kangaroos, Mitsuaki Iwago's Penguins, and In the Lion's Den. He presently lives in Japan.
