Product Description
Award-winning photographer Gil Garcetti has created an important visual document intended to show the world why Water is Key. The book contains eighty compelling black and white photographs that illustrate the immediate need for safe water and the dramatic results that can be achieved through the help of world leaders, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and involved citizens. Short essays by leaders such as President Jimmy Carter and outgoing United Nations Secretary-General Kofi Annan are accompanied by quotes from NGO staff and West African villagers themselves. Gil Garcetti intends Water is Key as a call to action and plans to spend a substantial part of his energies in the next two years to making his campaign a successful one. All of his royalties from bookstore sales of this book will be donated to a safe-water NGO.

The Title and photos tell the story well.February 23, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It's so easy to get depressed about Africa, but this book shows the humanity of Africa, the dire need for clean water, and the celebration of success through the joy on the children's faces. There is optimism as well as sadness in these compelling photographs.
