Look at places you know and are familiar with, roadways you have travelled, sidewalks, parks and pathways you have strolled, waterways you have paddled, buildings you have visited, maybe even the one you live, work, shop, worship or study in. Now see them in an entirely new way through the bird's-eye views hidden between the covers of the book you hold in your hands. The gifts these early aerial artists left us provide a fascinating flight through time. So please fasten your seat belts and enjoy the aerial adventure! Photography by John McQuarrie with words from Randy Boswell.
