Rivers by Peter Goes A breathtaking journey along the world’s most important rivers, from the author of international bestseller Timeline.
Rivers is just as beautiful and compelling as Timeline and has the same crossover appeal. It’s a Peter Goes mix of stories, facts and icons that bring history to life with a sense of wonder and humour. Julia Marshall, Publisher
This journey on the world’s most important rivers, seas and oceans tells the story of our planet through cultures, myths, icons and history.
It takes us from the Nile to the Amazon, the Mekong Delta to the Mississippi, the Murray to the Waikato.
Each map is full of fascinating facts about nature, culture and history, with major events and historical gures alongside favourite stories and icons.
This absorbing, playful book shows who we are, how we live and the myths we weave around our people and places.
“Here is a glowing sucker octopus, with its limbs spread out, pumpkin-coloured, looking like a just exploded Roman candle in the night sky” Wall Street Journal on Timeline
“...stunning...with its ribbons of pitch black winding through subtly coloured, deeply involving pages...” The Guardian on Timeline
