WONDERS NEVER DO CEASE
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Once again the adage that wonders never cease is proven. This time by a fine bit of paper engineering enclosed between small covers (4 ½" by 5 ½"). The seven mysteries, which include Atlantis, the Bermuda Triangle, Easter Island, the Egyptian Labyrinth, the Nasca Lines, Shangri-La, and Stonehenge, are each introduced by a concise yet complete text that provides appropriate background information. Shangri-La, known in fable as a paradise on earth, emerges from a bank of puffy clouds. Yet, of all the three dimensional illustrations, perhaps the Egyptian Labyrinth is the most fascinating with its pillars reflecting the intricate colorful art of the Twelfth Dynasty. - Gail Cooke
