{"product_id":"donovan-wylie-donovan-wylie-9783869307824","title":"Donovan Wylie: The Tower Series","description":"Donovan Wylie's \u003ci\u003eThe Tower Series\u003c\/i\u003e, now available as a complete set in a custom cardboard box, reveals the repetitive character of military conflict across diverse geographies and histories. The first book in the series is \u003ci\u003eBritish Watchtowers\u003c\/i\u003e (2007), which studies the lines of sight from surveillance posts along the Irish border, and reveals a kind of virtual environment that enveloped the border region of Northern Ireland. These towers, constructed in the mid-1980s primarily in the mountainous border region of South Armagh, were landmarks in a 30-year conflict in and over Northern Ireland. The second book, \u003ci\u003eOutposts\u003c\/i\u003e (2011), charts NATO observation posts in Kandahar Province, Afghanistan. Built on natural promontories with multiple lines of sight, these outposts formed a protective visual architecture and were frequently positioned on defense locations established during earlier conflicts. \u003ci\u003eNorth Warning System\u003c\/i\u003e draws a close to his \u003ci\u003eTower Series\u003c\/i\u003e. Surveying a radar station just inside the Canadian Arctic, Wylie examines the detection of invisible threats through unmanned observation posts in remote regions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Donovan Wylie\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 386930782X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783869307824\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Steidl\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/31\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.80h x 12.00w x 1.60d","brand":"Donovan Wylie","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43940881465599,"sku":"9783869307824","price":90.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_bce3bc13-74c3-4e3c-a51d-7e90139c8518.jpg?v=1681449699","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/donovan-wylie-donovan-wylie-9783869307824","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
