| Publisher Description: There are so many fine-looking places in the United States, Europe and Japan, that it is really hard to decide which one to choose. Therefore I chose a combination of known and less known places, including Paris, Berkeley, Nara, Pompeii, Boston and Hiroshima, to bring a fresh kaleidoscopic documentary.Do you know where there is a continuously replenished collection of folded paper cranes? Or a full concert carillon with 61 pieces? Or the statue of the author of "Le Cid" and "Horace"? The answers to these questions and other hundreds of useful facts are in this book. There is also an Addendum - For future generations, with ideas about different burning issues, which will need to be addressed by very intelligent and courageous people - the sooner, the better.The over 200 photos, taken in 2013 - 2015, with their comprehensive and eye-catching explanations, indubitably show why this Planet is so precious.The United States, Europe and Japan are very distinctive and sophisticated, and any reader, no matter from what place of the world, will definitely find, in this book of general interest, numerous absorbing and adored images and facts. |
