Soweto is a unique, cosmopolitan African experience - one of the largest black cities on the continent - with an eclectic mix of ethnic groups from South Africa and beyond, many holding proudly to their traditional culture while embracing a western way of life. In visits over two years, photographer Mark Lanning, creative director Neil Roake and writer Glynis Horning set about capturing the warmth, creative energy, adaptability, community spirit, faith and indomitable humour of Soweto's people, as reflected in their fashion, music, homes, taverns, businesses and distinctive cuisine. Its a pilgrimage the three of them urge every tourist - and every South African - to make at least once. This book aims to both inspire such a trip and provide a vivid reminder afterwards.
