Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - For most Americans, the words "Lockerbie, Scotland" evoke one image: the iconic photograph of the battered nose cone of a Pan Am jumbo jet surrounded by bodies, investigators, and debris on a lonely hillside. For members of the Syracuse University community, the words represent the loss of 35 students, who died returning from a semester abroad when their jet exploded over Lockerbie.

On many trips over 12 years, photography professor Lawrence Mason, Jr., and magazine professor Melissa Chessher brought more than 50 students to capture the town in images and words.Through stunning photographs and personal vignettes, Looking for Lockerbie introduces to the world some of Lockerbie's most engaging personalities, events, and places: its last milk delivery man, its boy racers, and a local model; a Burns supper and the town's annual gala; its cheese factory, its high school, one of the area's few remaining rural schools, a Tibetan Buddhist monastery, and many of the castles, ancient stone sites, and Roman landmarks that make this borderland town historically significant. The book celebrates the connection between a "wee" Scottish town and an American university, forged from the grief and sorrow arising from a single horrific air disaster.…
