Bolivia
Bok av Don McLaughlin
When California geologist Don McLaughlin was hired to go to the wilds of Bolivia to hunt for oil in 1959, he took two degrees from Berkeley, a three-man field crew, and a couple of cameras. The resulting collection follows their three-year journey exploring the country, revealing striking photographs of bug-plagued hillsides, valleys, and mountains. Chronicling their travels by air, mule, on foot, or via Land Rover, these images show villagers going about their everyday lives, painting a vivid portrait of this fascinating country's urban culture.
