Book excerpt: The author's 4th aerial texture book and 23rd book overall, 'Mountain Texture' is a comprehensive gallery of aerial images taken of glaciers found in Switzerland, France, and Italy. Utilizing a light antique airplane from the WWII era, images of these majestic glaciers show patterns, textures, and details of massive formations of ice, from the intimate perspective of an aircraft flying slowly above. While the glaciers themselves are in the process of recession and extinction, they remain literal rivers of ice that carve immense alpine topography. In their natural cycles of movement, they present themselves as unique and ever-changing works of art, difficult to appreciate through ordinary means on the ground or from satellites above. Containing 167 aerial images, 'Mountain Texture' presents virtually unrepeatable views of countless glaciers of the Alps, whether from the perspective closely above, annual flows in ice, or the effects of climate change.

Download or read book The Glacier of the Alps & Mountaineering in 1861 written by John Tynall and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This one volume contains two pioneering works of outdoor adventure and study from celebrated naturalist John Tyndall. A physicist and educator by profession, Tyndall began visiting the Alps annually in 1849 to explore the glaciers: he climbed Mont Blanc several times, made the first ascent of the Weisshorn, and attempted to summit the Matterhorn.The Glaciers of the Alps, first published in 1860, and the following year's Mountaineering in 1861 combined his climbing feats and scientific observations in works that riveted the scientific world of his day. Considered classics of the Golden Age of mountaineering, these delightful books, written with an intelligent enthusiasm, remain absorbing today.AUTHOR BIO: Irishman JOHN TYNDALL (1820-1893) rose from humble roots and little education to become one of the most respected and influential scientists and philosophers of science of the 19th century, ranked with Charles Darwin and Thomas Henry Huxley. A man of diverse accomplishment, he invented the fireman's respirator and was the first to successfully tackle the question "Why is the sky blue?" Other notable works among his 16 books and 145 papers include Faraday as a Discoverer and On the Scientific Use of the Imagination.

Download or read book Glaciers of the Bernese Alps written by Garrett Fisher and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-19 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Bernese Alps of the Swiss Alps contain renowned and iconic scenery in Switzerland, including the Jungfrau, Eiger, and Mönch, standing tall over Grindelwald and Interlaken. The range is also an epicenter of the largest glacier in Continental Europe, at 23 kilometers long, with a host of many other significant alpine glaciers. All of them are melting and doing so rapidly, succumbing to the realities of climate change. Recent Swiss university studies indicate that only one will remain as a sliver of its present majestic size by 2100. "Glaciers of the Bernese Alps" is a comprehensive work containing close and intimate aerial images of nearly all remaining glacial features in the range, taken from a small antique airplane manufactured in 1949. His second major glacial work, Garrett Fisher piloted the airplane, took the photographs, and wrote the text, a book dedicated to the beauty of these alpine features which are rapidly disappearing. Containing 178 images, viewers are shown glaciers from angles that would take a lifetime to savor on the ground, a lifetime that we do not have before they will be gone.
