From the team behind the best-selling Atlas of Adventures comes
this awe-inspiring journey of discovery. Showcasing the globe's
most impressive landscapes, iconic buildings and evocative
antiquities from both the modern and ancient worlds, this is the
most wonderful Atlas adventure yet! Travel around the world to
scale the Eiffel Tower, trek the Great Wall of China, and raft
through the Yosemite Valley. On every page, another awe-inspiring
sight awaits, from the deepest point on Earth to the highest peak,
ancient cities carved into rock and skyscrapers soaring above the
clouds. Each section begins with an infographic map of the region
it explores, followed by richly detailed two-page spreads featuring
its most jaw-dropping natural and manmade sights. Explore the
sprawling and sacred Angkor Wat, survive the extreme heat of Death
Valley, and gaze at the majestic ruins of Machu Picchu. Lucy
Letherland's stunning artwork brings these wonders to life in all
their awesomeness, with a real sense of their scale and history.
Interesting facts and figures pepper the scenes. Did you know that
Hawaii's Kilauea volcano is said to be home to a fire goddess? Or
that Mount Everest is so high, helicopters can't reach the top? Or
that there's a gigantic hole in the Caribbean Sea, filled with
sharks, turtles and coral reefs? A 'Can you find?' page at the back
challenges you to explore the pages even deeper by locating the
pictured scenes and scene-stealers. Children and adults alike will
be astounded by the world's most unbelievable sights in this
compendium of wonders.
