A rare perspective on the Dutch landscape is provided in this stunning collection of more than 300 aerial photographs. Cities, farms, lakes, beaches, and fields of flowers are recognizable from above but are more abstractly rendered in the aerial view as if part of a different world. Travelers and newcomers to Holland will appreciate the unique images that celebrate the connections between earth and sky in this collection from an award-winning photographer.

This book examines the relationship between the people of Holland and the water that surrounds them. It looks at how the two live together and how they tussle for supremacy. This love-hate relationship is described through the eyes of a people who live in a land that one of nature's elements tries to reclaim. The author travelled the length and breadth of the country to understand how water came to have a huge influence and effect on a nation's population. Full of spectacular colour photographs, this book provides a unique insight into the relationship between man and nature.
