He has worked as a journalist for some of the major English-language newspapers, and is now a Royal Literary Fund Fellow as well as a Writing Fellow and Teaching Associate at the University of Cambridge. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Having worked and lived in Australia, England, Scotland and Ireland, and having travelled in over 70 countries, Vitali is the author of 15 books translated into many languages.I wish there had been more detailed maps for some of them, but overall a very enjoyable book (and Baarle in Belgium and the Netherlands is clearly an inspiration for China Miéville’s ‘The City and the City’).

Starting his career in the former USSR, where he became known as the country’s first investigative journalist, he was forced to defect in January 1990. Insgesamt wirkt es so, als wäre der ganze Text bei Google Translate eingegeben und nicht lektoriert worden. Das ganze Buch ist voller Rechtschreibfehler, die Satzstruktur ist nicht an die deutsche Grammatik angepasst und dadurch liest sich der Text leider sehr sperrig und teilweise auch konfus. La risposta non si trova a Bruxelles, ma nelle enclave dimenticate d'Europa: piccoli frammenti di un Paese completamente circondate da un altro.The designers have decided not to indent paragraph breaks, which makes for an awkward look -- compounded by overly long line lengths. The Atlas is perfect for the long winter evenings, immersing yourself in a discovery of some of the weird and wonderful ways humans have mapped their world. The pre-loved books are carefully cleaned and maintained offering a wide variety of general and specialist titles from children's to adults.
