160pp, with numerous monochrome photographic plate illustrations. In green cloth boards with black lettering (boards faded and a little rubbed at edges, bruised at ends of a sunned spine).

There's also a previous owner's name and a small bookseller's ticket on the front paste down indicating the volume was once in the stock of Beaumont's, specialists in Aviation Literature on Bath Street, London (Beaumont's began The Aviation Bookshop in the mid 1970s and is now located just outside Tunbridge Wells, Kent.)
An annotated collection of aerial photographs mostly from the late 1940s showing some of the country's finest history buildings (Canterbury Cathedral, Hampton Court, Chatsworth, York Minister, Fountains Abbey etc) and natural beauties (Lake Windermere, the Malverns, etc).
