Atlas of Unexpected Places is a journey
to far-off lands, obscure discoveries and unimaginable
locations, with 45 unique maps and evocative
photography. Take an armchair voyage to places
both infamous and unknown that have, often by chance or by
haphazard means, been destinations of discovery that make up
our world today. Learn about the accidental discovery
or Vaseline. Set foot on the aptly named Just Enough Room
Island. Chart the royal romance that led shipwrecked lovers to
discover the purple rock of Madeira. Follow in the footsteps
of a stray goat who led its keeper to uncover lost ancient biblical
scrolls. These are the world’s most wondrous, improbable and –
most of all – unexpected of places.
