The first book in the series is \u003ci\u003eBritish Watchtowers\u003c\/i\u003e (2007), which studies the lines of sight from surveillance posts along the Irish border, and reveals a kind of virtual environment that enveloped the border region of Northern Ireland. These towers, constructed in the mid-1980s primarily in the mountainous border region of South Armagh, were landmarks in a 30-year conflict in and over Northern Ireland. The second book, \u003ci\u003eOutposts\u003c\/i\u003e (2011), charts NATO observation posts in Kandahar Province, Afghanistan. Built on natural promontories with multiple lines of sight, these outposts formed a protective visual architecture and were frequently positioned on defense locations established during earlier conflicts. \u003ci\u003eNorth Warning System\u003c\/i\u003e draws a close to his \u003ci\u003eTower Series\u003c\/i\u003e. Surveying a radar station just inside the Canadian Arctic, Wylie examines the detection of invisible threats through unmanned observation posts in remote regions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 176\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.6 x 9.8 x 12 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 31, 2015\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51769735053600,"sku":"9783869307824","price":90.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/ba28588caa2223173b7f4f49e132dbb8.webp?v=1780354983","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/donovan-wylie-the-tower-series-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
