Wow. A hugely impressive book. Chakkar Polo Around The World. Photographed exquisitely by Fred Mayer and edited by the great Herbert Spencer. The images of the sport itself are suitably dramatic - the pictures of the people watching are something else entirely. An extraordinary fashion book is what this. Just look at the clothes, faces and places!
