Que Se Yo de Geografia - Todo lo que Necesitas Saber Acerca del Mundo

Was there really an Atlantis? Is America one continent or two? And what''s so bad about the Badlands? If geography questions leave you scratching your head, you''re not alone. Kenneth Davis, author of the acclaimed national best-seller Don''t Know Much About History, makes geography fun as he takes us on a fascinating, breathtaking, and hilarious grand tour of the planet Earth. Geography doesn''t begin and end with maps, and in Don''t Know Much About Geography, Davis shows the connection between geography and everyday life, as well as how geography has influenced historical events. If you can''t tell the difference between a Mercator Projector and a Magnetic Pole, let Kenneth Davis open your eyes to this wide, wild, and wonderful world. Kenneth C. Davis speaks often on national television and radio. His USA Weekend column is seen weekly by millions of readers. In addition to his adult titles, he writes the Don''t Know Much About Kids series published by HarperCollins. He lives in New York City with his wife and two children.
