Atlas of Remote Islands: Fifty Islands I Have Never Set Foot On and Never Will – Judith Schalansky, translated by Christine Lo

There are still places on earth that are unknown. Visually stunning and uniquely designed, this wondrous book captures fifty islands that are far away in every sense-from the mainland, from people, from airports, and from holiday brochures.

Author Judith Schalansky used historic events and scientific reports as a springboard for each island, providing information on its distance from the mainland, whether its inhabited, its features, and the stories that have shaped its lore.

With stunning full-colour maps and an air of mysterious adventure, Atlas of Remote Islands is perfect for the traveller or the romantic in all of us.
