A unique archive of beautiful aerial photographs of Persia.
A stunning archive of aerial photographs from the 1970s, Lost Persia provides a unique look at a beautiful landscape and fascinating culture few people have seen for themselves.

Georg Gerster (1928-2019) was a pioneer of aerial photography. For over 40 years he took breathtaking pictures of mountains and deserts, coasts and lakes, spectacular archaeological sites and ancient monuments, agrarian and industrial landscapes in 111 countries on all continents, covering all types of territory from the Amazon to Antarctica.  Maryam Sachs (b.1962) was born in Iran, and educated at the Sorbonne in Paris. She has a Masters in Economic Development from Columbia University, New York, and her books include the anthologies The Kiss and The Moon, The Wild Emperor (with her husband, designer Rolf Sachs) and the novel Sans te dire adieu. She lives in London.

The photographs in this book are organised into nine chapters, by region. An introductory text describes each geographical region. The book also includes a selection of Persion poetry and a map.Chapter 1: The North (Alborz, Caspian Sea, Gorgan, Mazandaran)Chapter 2: Persian Gulf and its IslandsChapter 3: Khorasan (Iran's largest province)Chapter 4: Kerman, Sistan, BaluchistanChapter 5: Kermanshah, Kurdistan, LuristanChapter 6: AzerbaijanChapter 7: Central IranChapter 8: Fars (Persia's Heartland)Chapter 9: Khuzistan
