Witness the rise of New York City through dozens of historic and contemporary aerial photographs that chart the citys everchanging skyline. From the ground, New York City can feel like a chaotic jumble of traffic, pedestrians, oneway streets, parks, and buildings of every shape and size. But above the city, away from the cacophony and the commotion, New York can be tranquil and aweinspiring. The city that never sleeps also never stops changing, which is why this phenomenal collection of historic maps and aerial photos is a fascinating way to explore New Yorks evolution. The book opens with maps of 17thcentury Manhattan, a quiet settlement with a ragged shoreline. A series of chronological illustrations show the citys northward expansion, the establishment of its grid system, and the creation of Central Park. The next three chapters include aerial photographs that chart the citys unbelievable expansion in every direction, including skyward. As buildings rise, as the shoreline expands with ports and landfills, and as more sophisticated photographic techniques allow for breathtaking views of New Yorks unmistakable skyline, this lush, oversized book captures a city that is truly alive. Author Peter Skinners commentaries on the photographs and maps will guide readers through what is certain to become a treasured book for all who love New York.

I bought 'A Century of Aerial Photography' as a unique gift for my dad, who loves history. The images are absolutely breathtaking and really showcase how the world has changed. It's amazing to see the evolution of landscapes and cities over time. Highly recommend it for anyone who appreciates photography or history!

Not what I expected
I was pretty disappointed with 'A Century of Aerial Photography'. The concept is fantastic, but the quality of some photos seemed off. A few images were fuzzy, which took away from the overall experience. Plus, the delivery took longer than I anticipated. It’s a neat idea, just not executed as well as I hoped.

Great book, but a bit pricey
This book is packed with incredible aerial photographs that are really something special. I enjoyed flipping through it, but I do feel like it’s a bit on the expensive side for what you get. Still, it makes for a nice coffee table piece and has sparked some great conversations. Just wish it came at a lower price point!
