Description
This title presents a visual tribute to the 20th Century, with photographs from PA Photos. This is a collection of great British architectural triumphs, inspiring monuments and geographical features; from Stonehenge to the Angel of the North. A beautiful gift idea, alone or part of this invaluable series. The British Isles are punctuated by some of the most iconic landmarks in the world: great architectural triumphs, inspiring monuments, geographical features and monuments of an industrial age alike. In this book 300 are shown: most are familiar to modern eyes but some, like the Crystal Palace, exist now only in photographs; some, like St Paul's Cathedral surrounded by a devastated London during the Blitz, are seen in an unfamiliar context; some, such as the Angel of the North, are newly arrived while others, such as Stonehenge, pre-date history
