Unusual atlas released

From page 48
date: fhe Atlas of Earth
Mysteries (Rand McNally/Thornas
Allen & Son; 240 pp.; $49.95).
The editors have taken a multi-
disciplinary approach to tackling a
host of enigmas that have
perplexed humankind for cen-
turies. Why does it ‘“‘rain’’ frogs

and fish? How do birds navigate
unfailingly across thousands of
miles? Why and how do certain
Afsican lakes occasionally kill

everything for miles around? What

are the eerie ‘‘blue holes” of the
Caribbean that strike fear in the
hearts of local fishermen?

The Atlas of Earth Mysteries an-

swers these puzzles and many
more in a lavishly illustrated and
highly entertaining text.

If, after reading the latter title,
there are still any questions bege-
ing answers, it could be that what
you need is a good encyclopedia.

Can’t afford one, you say?
Nonsense.
