'Extraordinary' - Country Life
'Utterly brilliant … it feels like Abram is generously sharing that
‘new mental map’ of his through his wonderful photos' -
International Times
'Stunning photographs of Great Britain’s ancient sites, from
Stonehenge to Cadbury Castle... The aerial images often reveal
topographical secrets [and] might read like paintings... Abram shot
many of the pictures during the pandemic, when Britain’s empty
highways, pastures, and cliffsides were at their most majestic' -

'Spectacular, beautiful and awesome images, familiar and lesser

'Excellent … A superb resource that uncovers our rich prehistory
and offers photographers a wealth of locations to discover and
explore' - Outdoor Photography
