Have you ever wondered what a badland is? What about a gulch? Do you wonder what an isthmus is? Or a seamount? What about the difference between a plateau and a plain, or a knob and knoll? Well, here are the answers!
The sixty-three entries from A to z describe the earth's features—its physical geography—from the highest mountain peak to the deepest ocean trench, in clear, concise terms. Each entry is beautifully illustrated in full color.
This is a perfect introduction to the dramatic and fascinating face of the vast world around us. The author and artist of the best-selling Maps & Globes team up again, this time to prove that geography can indeed be an adventure.
