Despite interest in the environment being at one of its highest points, most of us have very little knowledge of the 4 billion years history that have come to form our beautiful landscapes. With this small but mighty book, you can learn about the beginning principles of geography, geology and geomorphology. Additionally, you can start to develop an understanding of plate tectonics, landforms and geological timescales which can all help you 'read' the vast outdoor landscapes we have across the globe.

This is a highly illustrated, compact book with a very accessible text so would be excellent for many different generations to utilise.
