This book, by Lonely Planet, is the best book, by far, that I have received from them. It may just be pictures, but the effort put into taking the pictures inside the book was easily identified. In the index, there are small summaries about where the pictures were taken, and a fact or two about the

area where the pictures were taken. The book contains amazing pictures, such as aerial views of rarely-seen animals and places. Some include:

The Gaberoun Oasis, in Libya
Federa Lake, in Italy
The Korowai tribespeople, in Indonesia
Several National Parks from all over the world, and more!

The pictures found in this book are rarely-seen views of the world and the world's treasures, and it's making me start to wonder what I'm missing out on.

I would definitely recommend this beautiful book to all readers! Thanks to Lonely Planet for providing this book in exchange for a review.
