Book Description Magnificent new aerial photographs of the southwest of England – Cornwall, Devon, Dorset, Somerset and Wiltshire. From Stonehenge in Wiltshire to Land’s End in Cornwall, Jason Hawkes has compiled a magnificent portrayal of the glorious west of England. His bird’s-eye views show the land and the buildings often from startling angles, and cover such famous sites as Stourhead, Longleat, Wells and Salisbury Cathedrals, the Cheddar Gorge, Maiden Castle, Lulworth Cove, Dartmoor, St. Michael’s Mount, lovely towns such as Dorchester, Taunton, Newquay and Exeter and much more. A highly informative commentary on the pictures is provided in the captions.

The Beautiful Country December 19, 2003 I picked this book up at the library, intending to take it home to browse....Boy am I glad I did. This book's photographs are breathtaking! For those who do not know, the West Country pictured in this book is (of course) the west coast of England. Pictures include: Salisbury, Stone Henge, Looe and Newquay. All photos are expertly taken from the air, and include an equal balance of nature and architectural scenes.Do not miss this one, folks! The art is simply beautiful!
