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 texts give a behind-the-scenes look at the making of the photographs, and brief background to some of the most fascinating subject matters.
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. His previous books for teNeues, Africa and The Essential Africa, have become bestsellers.
