Wild Places [EPUB ebook] 

Get back to nature and explore sites unspoilt by humankind with the latest addition to the Inspired Traveller’s Guide series.




We humans don’t just love wild places. We need them ; we need their scale, their breath, their drama and enigma. Wild places can be
a balm and a solace ; an escape or a returning; a best friend; an inner cleanse. And they can remind us of our unimportance in the world.



Travel writer Sarah Baxter presents
25 untameable natural wonders that reveal the curious story of our wild planet and why we need to protect it.



Despite all the advances of human civilisation, we’ve yet to come up with anything to rival the
majesty of Lapland’s snow-capped mountain summits,  the haunting
song of humpback whales in a Namibian paradise or the
epic sculptural forms of Utah’s vast Canyonlands.




Escape to each of these unforgettable sites and more with 
Wild Places,  an
insightful and
stunningly illustrated guide to all Mother Nature has to offer.
