Book Review - Rivers - By Claudia Martin - Publication Date: 14 September 2021


 The masterpiece book, Rivers, boasts an incredible portfolio of professional, photographic snapshots of rivers the world over. Talk about an epic adventure of a lifetime!  One can visit the continents and countries whose civilizations have flourished riverside since the dawn of mankind, without even leaving the comfort of ones armchair.  Of course, that would not be half as challenging!  

Nevertheless, hours and hours can be well spent mulling over the rivers captured in their many moods and types of weather.  One cannot talk about rivers either, without mentioning waterfalls and bridges.  These too, are shot at angles for their most aestheic potential.  Gasps of wonder and awe at the spectacular, phenomenal panoramas of God's creation, displayed within this book's pages, will exude, involuntarily, from your being as you 'experience' this 'voyage'.

The author has done an exceptional job at highlighting, with just the right tweak of words, as explanation of the rivers' significance, such as their respective uses, legends, environmental status and so on, throughout history and of current times.  Very informative and educationally delightful.  Have an awesome adventure meandering the world's rivers along with the author and the photographic "tour guides".
