Atlas of Vanishing Places: The Lost Worlds as They Were and as They Are Today Winner Illustrated Book of the Year - Edward Stanford Travel Writin by Travis Elborough
5.0
Beautifully laid-out book that also acts as a warning. We start with formerly great ancient settlements and end up with places disappearing thanks to our refusal to tackle climate change. Places that appeared in my 1980s world atlas, like the Great Barrier Reef and Great Wall of China are sadly listed here under Last Chance to See.
