Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. For centuries, the Alps were an almost insurmountable barrier on the way from Europe's north to the south, and vice versa. The Romans replaced some of the ancient narrow transalpine mule tracks with their famous roadways. Paved roads were introduced in the 19th century, soon followed by rail…roads with impressive bridges, viaducts, and tunnels. Today, 120 safe and comfortable highways and roads, as well as high-capacity railroad lines, serve as indispensable transit routes for Europe's people and economies. Without these passages, Switzerland would be an entirely different country: socially, culturally, economically, and militarily. Through some 80 large-format colour and black-and-white images, Alpine Passes of Switzerland demonstrates the boldness of the country's modern Alpine crossings, their infrastructure and beautiful landscapes. Additional historic photographs convey earlier generations' courage and pioneering efforts to build the roads and railtracks that connect Europe's nations. Supplementary essays trace the history of the Alpine passes and highlight their significance for Swiss national identity, explain their military importance, and describe the vision that preceded the construction of new base tunnels across the St. Gotthard and Loetschberg massifs between 1994 and 2016: the future of rail transit across the Alps lies deep underground. AUTHOR: Richard von Tscharner, born in 1947, has made a 34-year career in Swiss private banking. Now based in Switzerland and Dubai, he has been working as a freelance photographer since 2007, with a special interest in landscape photography. SELLING POINTS: . A beautifully illustrated book for anyone with an interest in Switzerland and the fascinating history and present of the country's Alpine passes and transit infrastructure . Features newly taken large-format colour and black-and-white photographs as well as historic images and maps . Essays illuminate the cultural, military, economic, and social history and importance of Switzerland's Alpine passes 50 colour, 84 b/w illustrations A beautifully illustrated book for anyone with an interest in Switzerland and the fascinating history and present of the countrys Alpine passes and transit infrastructure.

Gold medal at the German Photo Book Award 24/25.; Lange waren die Alpen eine fast unüberwindbare Hürde auf dem Weg vom Norden in den Süden oder umgekehrt. Zuerst führten schmale Saumpfade über die Berge, dann auch römische Fahrwege, später zunehmend befestigte Strassen und seit dem 19. Jahrhundert die Eisenbahnen mit imposanten Brücken und Tunneln.

Rund 30 historische Aufnahmen vermitteln die pionierhafte Anstrengung und den Mut früherer Generationen, das Alpenmassiv zu überwinden und zu einem Begegnungsraum zwischen Norden und Süden zu verbinden. Frédéric Möri, Kunst- und Kulturhistoriker und Philosoph, zeichnet die Geschichte der Schweizer Alpenpässe nach und führt ihre Bedeutung für die Identität der Schweiz vor Augen.
