Book Review: Over Europe

One of the perks of working in a book store is that you get introduced to so many different books. It can open your mind to the world and be a very fun learning experience. However, I tend to fall in love with every other book I see, so I need to choose carefully which ones I really want because if I don't be careful it will be very hard on my wallet. But when I saw this book I knew before I even opened it that it was going to be amazing. It is completely full of aerial-view pictures of Europe, and they are all completely gorgeous. The pictures that I took of the book do not do them very much justice but they do capture the idea of the book in general.

This would be a very good book for anybody interested in photography or anyone who is a Europe-fanatic (like myself). It contains pictures and information of Italy, France, England, Scotland, The Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Switzerland and so much more. I know that I am constantly looking for more books that have anything to do with Europe and this one fit the bill, and in a beautiful way too. I would definitely recommend it.






The wind decided that it wanted to have some fun.
Maybe it became impatient and wanted to view a different page.







Some of the pages do have writing (as shown above), I haven't read it all yet but the text is mostly informative. It corresponds to the pictures either on the previous page or the picture above or below. Just like a textbook, but a beautiful textbook at that.
