{"product_id":"aeroscopics-patrick-ellis-9780520355491","title":"Aeroscopics: Media of the Bird's-Eye View","description":"In 1900, Paris had no skyscrapers, no tourist helicopters, no drones. Yet well before aviation made aerial views more accessible, those who sought such vantages had countless options available to them. They could take in the vista from an observation ride, see a painting of the view from Notre-Dame, or overlook a miniature model city. In \u003ci\u003eAeroscopics, \u003c\/i\u003ePatrick Ellis offers a history of the view from above, written from below. Richly illustrated and premised upon extensive archival work, this interdisciplinary study reveals the forgotten media available to the public in the Balloon Era and after. Ellis resurrects these neglected spectacles as \"aeroscopics,\" opening up new possibilities for the history of aerial vision.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Patrick Ellis\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0520355490\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780520355491\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of California Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/27\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.40w x 1.40d","brand":"Patrick Ellis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44127073370367,"sku":"9780520355491","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6a336540-5345-4796-ada1-abcde5a9f325.jpg?v=1687451714","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/aeroscopics-patrick-ellis-9780520355491","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
