Recenzii

... a practical crash course in interpreting the great outdoors... Small enough to fit in a pocket or glovebox but detailed enough to provide useful answers, it is a good overview of how the landscapes we see all around us were formed.
If your only memory of school geography lessons is terminal boredom rather than terminal moraines, this book will help ... a practical crash course.
Detailed, accessible and small enough to fit in your pocket!
