The Other Guide to the World; Atlas Snubbed
A reference guide, Atlas, and compendium of jokes all in one, this Atlas provides the reader with stories and facts associated with each country rather than focus on the 2-D maps.
The Other Guide to the Word; Atlas Snubbed! offers the reader a glimpse of life, history, culture, climate, geography, demographic, and all other useful and useless travel tips and made-up facts about our ridiculously diverse and absurd world.
The book is reference guide to all the countries in the world. The text parodies renowned travel guides such as Lonely Planet, Frommer’s, and Fodor’s, along with historical reference texts i.e., encyclopedias, geography, and history textbooks, in hopes of entertaining and encouraging readers to learn more about the world. Humor is used to liven up the facts. And the storytelling makes sifting through numerous details of unfamiliar foreign lands more captivating.
