In order to gain an
authentic insight into what makes Britain really great then you need
look no further than this stunning new book.
Images of Britain is a
beautiful and evocative look at our island - a plethora of
breathtaking photographs, illustrating just how magnificent it really
is.
Providing a true
appreciation of the wealth and splendour that is on offer, flicking
through Images of Britain leaves one almost immediately compelled to
take off and experience it all at first hand. Forget the piazzas of
Rome, the rolling hills of Tuscany and the golden beaches of the
Riviera. Glorious, wonderful heritage, stunning scenery and bustling
contemporary cityscapes are all here on our doorstep, ready to be
savoured and loved.
Over 250 unique full
colour pictures, many taken by prize winning photographers, have been
exclusively selected from VisitBritain's own online image library,
Britain on View, and range from stunning double page panoramas to
exquisite close cropped detail, each capturing something of our
country's glorious heritage and the unique spirit of its people.
Covering the length
and breadth of England, Scotland and Wales, Images of Britain not only
encapsulates the unique, unparalleled beauty and vibrancy of each
nation but also the common features that bind Britain together.
Imaginatively divided
into 8 sections, each celebrating Britain in its various incarnations
(Iconic Britain - Historic Britain - Coastal Britain - Landscape
Britain - Stately Britain - Rural Britain - Metro Britain - Living
Britain) there is also a very handy gazetteer that provides essential
visitor information and contact details of several places featured.
Images of Britain is
as neat and nifty in its format as it is splendid in content, it's
small yet robust thus making it an inspiring travel companion, ideal
gift book or perfect to browse and revisit your favourite places. |
