Description

This beautifully illustrated scrapbook for readers 6 to 11 is a snapshot of the world circa 1925, looking in on cultures, creatures, and environments all over the globe through the log of the Zephyr, an all-weather hot-air balloon invented by fictional Scottish adventurer James Mac Killian. Presented as Mac Killian's notes, rediscovered by his great-niece Caroline, the book is filled with antique photos, drawings, naturalist paintings, and documents—many of them openable or removable—and describes aboriginal peoples, rare butterflies, ancient rituals, dramatic migrations, forbidding landscapes, lost cities, and places of unexpected beauty.
