CHINA: Portrait of a People
by Tom Carter
TRAVEL / PHOTOGRAPHY
The Beijing Olympics race ever closer. Despite increased tourism and
rampant foreign investment, the cultural distance between China and the
West remains as vast as the oceans that separate them. The Middle
Kingdom is still relatively unknown by Westerners.
China is in fact made up of 33 distinct regions populated by 56
ethnic groups
– and photojournalist Tom Carter has visited them all.
This little book is a visual tribute to the People's Republic of China,
with an ardent emphasis on the People.
