National Geographic Compact Atlas of the World

by National Geographic Society

  • FIELD GUIDE
  • 2012
  • PAPER
  • 256 PAGES

A quite exemplary atlas from National Geographic, this handy, pocket-sized guide to the world goes beyond the physical and political makeup of countries, showing regional population density, natural hazards -- including tsunami and earthquake risk --, land cover, plate tectonics, climate and water availability. Colorful and easy to navigate, the back of the book contains indexes of world flags and of foreign terms for geographic features.  (WLD234, $14.95)
