Gaucho at Butch Cassidy’s cabin
At the beginning of the 1990s John
spent three seasons exploring this southernmost part of South
America, including Tierra del Fuego and an island off Antarctica.
The trip provided plenty of scope for his familiar stunning photography,
as well as opportunities to observe penguins, meet gauchos and
take tea with the Patagonia Welsh. He made a mini-series about
his experiences for BBC Radio 4, originally broadcast to tie in
with the publication of his book An Englishman in Patagonia.
Andean music and some of his own recordings provide a background
to this presentation about what has come to be known as ‘the
uttermost part of the earth’.
“A
splendid lecture to a most enthusiastic capacity audience . .
. really magnificently illustrated.”
(Royal Geographical Society)
