AN excellent book for people of all ages, Mark Truman’s 100 Greatest Wonders of the World takes you to some of the most incredible well-known wonders of the world and some hidden heavens that readers will enjoy discovering.

Breathtaking photographs and a small world map with a red dot indicating where each of these wonders is situated and concise text describing the important features of the place can be found in each section. The list is very comprehensive and includes both natural and manmade wonders.

Ruins of historical and religious significance, amazing modern architectural and engineering accomplishments that different nations are proud of, breathtaking natural sights and secrets that lie in the seas — these are all what this book unfolds, besides many others that need to be read about and their photograph seen to be believed.

The sightseeing tour this book offers can’t be undertaken and completed all at once, so this book is ideal as a bedside table companion to be picked up and enjoyed every now and then. It is also an impressive coffee table material that guests can be impressed with.
