WILDERNESS

Wildernesses are places where human kind can experience the world in its rawest, most elemental form. They are often regions of extremes – very hot or very cold; extremely dry or saturated with water; densely forested or devoid of trees. But what they have in common is an untouched quality; these are places to discover the world in its ancestral guise. • More than 125 dramatic colour photographs transport readers to the world’s most isolated and unspoiled landscapes. • Explore the extremes of global topography – from towering mountain ranges to level desert sands. • Discover the magical beauty of plains and wetlands and the verdant lushness of forests an jungles. • Marvel at the awe-inspiring majesty of the Polar Regions: Earths final, frozen frontiers.
