«We have already crossed and meticulously mapped the globe. […] Suddenly, however, it turns out that we had overlooked something, something we had omitted in all the atlases. A whole continent: Terra Ultima». And what a continent: colossal and completely unique. Nature could follow its course without human intervention. The explorer Raoul Deleo found Terra Ultima after years of searching. With colorful, detailed drawings, he presents his missions and the marvelous animals, plants, and landscapes he encountered there. Terra Ultima had already caused excitement in the scientific community. Now, however, everyone can get to know this unknown part of the world. Especially for this book, fellow explorer and biologist Noah G. Stern had access to Deleo's archive. He made a representative selection of engravings and notes so that everyone can get an image of this fascinating new continent.
