Signed "Roger Ballen" on title page. This work was first published in 1994 in Rivonia, South Africa by William Waterman. "For almost two decades Roger Ballen, an American, has been photographing in the South African countryside, searching for aesthetic symbols to convey a sense of the place and the people... The images, though devoid of excess, stripped to their essence, are deptively simple." (Publisher) "Platteland is an altogether extraordinary book, the most impressive sequence of portraits I've seen in years. Roger Ballen has used the power of photographyto instruct, to shock, and to discomfit with an exemplary integrity of purpose." (Susan Sontag).

Karl Baedeker (1801-1959) was born in Essen, and attended Heidelberg University. His family was involved in the publishing and bookselling business, and around 1828 he entered the travel guide business. Baedeker created a different kind of travel book that opened up tourism for a new class of travelers, by guiding the tourist to the principal attractions in a country or area. This information was often edited by Baedeker himself, and sons would take over and expand the business after his death. This edition provides considerable information on Spain and Portugal, and contains many folding maps. ODB.
