A hotspot in the North Atlantic Iceland is one of the worlds most unusual countries. It is Europes second largest island but its most sparsely populated country. Sitting astride the Mid-Atlantic Ridge linking the North Atlantic plate with the Eurasian plate it is closer to Greenland than Europe. It lies just south of the Arctic Circle but warmed by Gulf Stream waters has a temperate climate. It has fiery volcanoes and freezing glaciers striking black sand beaches and hot geysers the word geyser itself comes from Icelandic. And a geologically young landmass Iceland is still taking shape: a volcanic eruption in 1963 caused the formation of the new island of Surtsey. Iceland is a fascinating exploration of this most beautiful island. From volcanoes and lava flows to geysers and geothermal pools from bird life to whale-watching from national parks verdant valleys to inland tundra and from how waterfalls are used for hydro-electric power to Reykjaviks city life the book is packed with 200 spectacular colour photographs. Presented with captions explaining the story behind each entry Iceland is a stunning collection of images celebrating the worlds most curious island.
