Atlas of a Lost World: Travels in Ice Age America by Craig Childs
4.0
I loved the writing style and how Childs transitioned between his own experiences and what specific places were like in the Ice Age. His writing is very descriptive and immersive. It was easy to follow and very compelling.
This was definitely more of an exploration of the land and time period than a highly structured or densely informational book. It didn't feel comprehensive but that wasn't the goal of this book. I do wish there had been more maps included within the pages to show the specific areas Childs was talking about, especially when describing the routes that people and animals may have taken. Would read more from him.
