Over Beautiful British Columbia: An Aerial Adventure

Więcej o książce

Since signing into Canadian Confederation in 1871, British Columbia has become one of the nation's most prominent economic and cultural entities. Our industries and cities have changed the B.C. landscape over the past 125 years, and the 1990s have been a time of reevaluation, a time for both reflection and foresight. Industrialists and conservationists, governments, First Nations, and everyday people are working together to better use our finite resources, and to better protect the environment that gives us our livelihoods and enviable quality of life. Some parts of this province remain among the wildest places on Earth, hardly touched by humans. As we cross from one century to the next, there's a fresh realization that nowhere else in the world is like British Columbia, that all these mountains and glaciers, coastal fiords, rivers, valleys, and plateaus, taken together, are unique. This land is ours to cherish, and if we manage it with care, the photographs in Over Beautiful British Columbia: An Aerial Adventure will always to be a stunning and accurate portrayal of Canada's Pacific province.
