"PublishersWeekly.com"
Gorgeous book of photographs that celebrate our planet at its best. This is the definitive work of Art Wolfe s] career...And if you're wondering how to fit 40 years of photographs in a single book, the answer is by making a very thick book. The work is 400 pages packed with 500 photographs. If you were to purchase just one of Wolfe's many books, this would be the one to buy.

I ve done 80 books and if anyone has entertained the idea of owning one of my books, I think this is the book that covers all the bases. I'm very proud of it.
Art Wolfe in "Smithsonian.com" article
"Wolfe's opus is a conservationist manifesto, reflecting the vast diversity of nature and humankind throughout the world with few signs of modern society in a glorious wash of colorful imagery."
"American Photo," named "Earth Is My Witness" as a "Best Photo Book of the Year" in 2014
...this is what Wolfe aptly calls 'my magnum opus.' It s also a conservationist statement of purpose, reflecting the diversity of nature and humankind throughout the worldwith few signs of modern society. Having studied art and anthropology, Wolfe taps both in his work, creating stunning landscapes and animal studies as well as intimate portraits of indigenous peoples.
"American Photo"
...one colourful masterpiece after another...his images ignite the imagination while also impacting the viewer on an emotional level.... [and] represent what photographers live for: the moments when the elements come together to offer the chance for an incredible image to be taken.
"Outdoor Photography"
"'The earth is my witness, ' he said, and with that, he became the Buddha. His awakening was directly linked to nature, so it's fitting that one of the most prolific and enlightened photographers of our world, Art Wolfe, would choose Buddha's words to caption his life's work. With his new book "Earth Is My Witness," Wolfe has created a magnum opus cataloging his life in photography.
"Outdoor Photographer"
I can say without reservation that this is "the" book of my career, encompassing nearly forty years of photography and nearly two years of production time. "Witness" is my diary, my legacy, my life.
