"If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a panoramic bird's-eye view is worth a million! Depictions of bustling crowds from magisterial heights appeared regularly in newspapers and magazines in the early twentieth century. Whether it was a carnival, a circus, a cook out, a baseball game, a city street, a train station, a parade, or an epic battle scene, artists depicted the everyday life of urban and country settings. This collection features the largest cast of characters in history. It showcases the remarkable beauty and breadth of this soon-to-be-rediscovered visual genre."--Back cover.
