Review
"There is something in this book for everyone." -BookExpression
"The Atlas is so dense it will keep any kind of nerd happy for weeks!...I'm running out of adjectives but trust me, this is a fantastic book." -5 Minutes for Books
"With maps, photographs, and environmental commentary, the National Geographic Visual Atlas is made for every person of the world: the environmentally minded, the travelers and globetrotters, the people who just want to learn more about the state of the world that we live on." -Main & Maple
"This is a book for explorers - both those who physically travel the globe and those that let the pages of books take them on incredible adventures. It is also perfect for a household with science-minded students of any age." -Literary Quicksand
"I LOVE IT. I definitely recommend looking at it while sitting at the coffee table which works out perfect for me because that's its brand new home." -Instagram: @shereadswithcats
"There are no words to capture the beauty of this book. Actually, I didn't want to take it out of the plastic. The weight of the book gave me chills with anticipation for the exciting visual journey I was about to experience...I felt like National Geographic brought the world into my home...Who knew you could have so much fun with an atlas." -What is That Book About
"The photography featured in this book is the most exquisite camera work you're likely to find anywhere, bar none. But we'd expect nothing less from National Geographic. Over the years, they have always delivered jaw-dropping, canvas-worthy photographs that entice just as well as they educate...National Geographic doesn't stop at just providing a collection of dry facts and boring maps. Instead, they dig deep, as they always do, and provide a book that is both reliably researched and carefully photographed, thus making for one of the most dazzling books you will ever own." -Jathan and Heather
