The Columbia Gazetteer of the World - 3 Volume Set Hardcover – June 23, 2008
Purchase options and add-ons
First published in 1998, the Gazetteer now features new entries and extensive revisions to reflect recent administrative divisions in countries around the world. It also contains new maps, population figures, and an expanded glossary of geographical and geological terms. With its long history of accuracy and authority, there is no other encyclopedia like Gazetteer.
The Columbia Gazetteer covers:
* The political world-countries, provinces, regions, states, counties, capitals, cities, towns, villages, and neighborhoods.
* The physical world-continents, oceans, seas, lakes, lagoons, rivers, bays, inlets, channels, and streams, along with islands, archipelagos, peninsulas, atolls, mountains, mountain ranges, canyons, deserts, valleys, and volcanoes.
* And special places-national parks and monuments, historic and archaeological sites, harbors, ports, airports, nuclear plants, canals, and destinations of interest.
