Summary: Ordinary Joes Opinion
Comment: I sell books on Amamzon and I was listing this book and double checking it's conditon when I became drawn into the book.
This is an excellent book for the history buff,school library,or for anyone who has never been to Washingtton CD.
The before and after pictures are especially interesting.
If you are planing a trip to the capitol this would be a good book to read and reread first. Then you could compare the views when you return .
This would give you an excellent "feel" for the changing "life" of the capitol.
Rating: 3
Summary: A nice pictorial - with dated pictures
Comment: Robert Cameron is undoubtedly one of the best urban aerial photographers in the country. However, the landscape of Washington has changed so dramatically in the twenty years since this book was released that anyone with a lot of knowledge about the area will be disappointed by what's missing.
It does contain a wide breadth of pictures, some which are definitely extraordinary. However, the book needs to be updated in order to capture the modernization in architecture and planning that has proliferated in Washington D.C. and the surrounding area since its initial publication.
Rating: 5
Summary: The best of its kind
Comment: Washington, DC is an unique capital city and Robert Cameron shares his birdeye's view with us in this marvelous volume. For residents and vistors alike, this is extraordinary record of the city, particularly the juxtaposition of old and contemporary photographs. Others try to emulate Cameron in this genre, but he is the master who makes it look easy.
