| In this first book truly to celebrate the city's vertical appeal, Horst Hamann offers a completely new perspective on the American metropolis. The result is a truly original and astonishing array of images that capture New York's towering presence in a way no other photographer ever has. Already the recipient of three prestigious photography awards, New York Vertical is a book as spectacular, as impressive, and as unusual as the subject it gloriously depicts. Annotation: Horst Hamann uses a panoramic camera to take 66 startling black-and-white photographs of the skyscrapers of New York. Observations by Woody Allen, E. B. White, and other artists and writers accompany them.
