With beautiful maps and stunning photography, Atlas of Vanishing Places takes you on a voyage to all corners of the world in search of the lost, disappearing and vanished places.

Maps offer us the chance to see not just how our world appears today, but how it once looked. Travis Elborough takes us
on a voyage in search of the disappearing, submerged and lost landscapes and manmade wonders that have vanished
from modern atlases. Discover ancient seats of power and long-forgotten civilizations: the Mayan city of Palenque, the
uncanny stone age remains of Skara Brae on Orkney and the Chan Chan of Peru.
From the Glacier National Park in Montana to the Congo Basin and the Chihuahuan Desert in Mexico, Travis Elborough
shines a light on extraordinary landscapes under threat. With beautiful maps and photography, Atlas of Vanishing Places
is a timely reminder of the fragility of our relationship with the world around us and a clarion call to preserve what remains.
