The Sardine News best seller: Mkambati and the Wild Coast
The Sardine News Online Shop sells all sorts. Fishing lures. Surfboards. Marine Art. Plastic recycling machinery. And books.
Well…
One book. And it outsells every other item, individually, in the entire store.
Mkambati and the Wild Coast. By John Costello and Div Devillers. A coffee table book, evidently of the highest order, as sales just keep pouring in.
John Costello himself processes the orders, using the good old post office service, right from where he lives. In jolly old Port St Johns. Deep Transkei. Deep Africa.
The post office has been pleasantly reliable and not one of our deliveries has gone awry. We also use PostNet for an extra R50. But this can take longer since there ain’t no PostNet in Port St Johns yet. So we send from East London or Mtata.
The book is filled with information on the Transkei Wild Coast, and radical imagery. This photography is first class, even using helicopters as props. Just for perspective in some shots of those deep valleys and fissures!
The Transkei, and Mkambati in particular, are so ancient and beautiful at the same time. John and Div have certainly captured this in their extraordinarily successful coffee table book.
It’s a great gift to give someone and if you place your order now, there is a mild chance you will get your copy of Mkambati and the Wild Coast, around Christmas time.
