Photographer Max Milligan has spent the last couple of years in Lebanon
producing his third portrait of a country, following his successful forays
into Ghana and Peru. The result is this book, which will be launched on 27th
October with at the Royal Geographic Society. Max's previous title Realm of
the Incas was a Times Top Ten Travel Book of the Year, and a Conde Nast
Traveller Book of the Month, and this book is equally spectacular.
The Lebanon reveals the unseen country beyond the headlines from the ancient
to the modern and illustrates the country's diversity - from Crusader
remains and bedouin tents to bikinis, burkhas and Botox on the beaches and
lingerie catwalks on the ski slopes.
