rugs, copper and brass, and artifacts from China, New Guinea, Africa
and South America. These things are from his privet collection, none were
bought for the purpose of reselling but rather to decorate his home.

wonderful collection of photographic prints including many wildlife photos and
prints of tigers photographed in China.
ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHER
James Anderson
is an internationally renowned
photojournalist and adventurer, with two major photographic books (New Guinea
& Cannibal), plus covers and major spreads in a whole host of
internationally prestigious magazines from Life International to The Geographic
and Argosy.
He's been shipwrecked in the Pacific,
wrestled camels in Turkey, and scoured the New Guinea Highlands in search
of missing American heir and adventurer Michael Rockefeller. He has also
lived and worked in the jungles of New Guinea for over two years
while collecting material for his books and records.
A blue-water yachtsman, he sailed his
own 60ft yacht, the "Moana Vahine", from Hong Kong to Southern
Turkey, down the South China Sea, across the Indian Ocean, and up the full
length of the Red Sea, via Singapore, Panang, Sri lanki, The Maldive Islands,
and French Djibouti. An avid diver and spear fisherman, he mounted a series of
diving expeditions in The Maldive Islands and The Red Sea.
In addition to several years
in New Guinea, he has organized and/or participated in photographic
expeditions in Kenya and Tanzania,
in Brazil and Columbia, in Turkey and some of the more
remote islands of the south pacific. "On board the forty-foot ketch, the
"Marquesa", we were the first yacht to visit the
remote island of Ua Pou, in the Marquesas in almost two years.
