Atlas of Vanishing Places includes a lot of short histories of ancient cities, forgotten lands, shrinking places and threatened worlds and the reason why they are disappearing. I found them very interesting as I love history and anthropology. The book is also filled with maps and photographs of these places to make it even more vivid what has been or will be lost.

I would recommend this book to those who love history, maps, and would love to know more about places that we have lost to history.
