World Geographical Encyclopedia, 5-Volume Set
This encyclopaedia presents an unusual interpretation of geography - including physical, anthropographic and cultural aspects of each continent. Each volume focuses on a different continent and the approach is thematic rather than alphabetical. The purpose of the work is to consider geography according to the combination of factors that tie humans to their environment.
