Summary

In Atlas of a Lost World, acclaimed author and adventurer Craig Childs takes readers on an electrifying journey through prehistoric North America, following the footsteps of the first humans to set foot on the continent during the last Ice Age. With poetic prose and scientific rigor, Childs weaves together anthropology, geology, archaeology, and his own visceral explorations across vast landscapes—from the mammoth-rich tundra of Alaska to the sunbaked caves of the American Southwest. He challenges conventional theories on early migration and asks profound questions about what it means to be human. More than just a travel narrative, this book is a meditation on survival, wonder, and our ancient connection to the land. This first edition, protected by a Brodart cover, is a must-have for collectors of exploration, anthropology, or natural history.
