In 2006, to fulfill a long-held dream, widely acclaimed photographer Michael Poliza and friend Stefan Breuer undertook a helicopter journey across Africa. Skimming close to the ground, they flew over 19 countries. Poliza's alluring-and often surprising photographs share this exceptional journey with the world. With a bird's eye view, we witness the astounding beauty, scale and diversity of this imposing continent. The accompanying text gives a behind-the -scenes look at the making of the photographs, and brief background to some of the most fascinating subject matters. AUTHOR Michael Poliza is a true adventurer. Most recently, millions have been following his expeditions via the internet. He spends much of each year in Africa, and is a pioneer in the use of digital photography for illustrated books. ILLUSTRATIONS Colour images
