Richard Halliburton

Have you ever wanted to visit the ancient cities of the Aztecs and the Incas? Or see the harbor of Rio de Janeiro? How about treasure hunting -- would you like to search for King Solomon's legendary treasure? You would? Well, then! Come along with Richard Halliburton's party, and you will see and touch the marvels of the world! You'll climb Half Dome Mountain in Yosemite National Park, U.S.A., and Popocatepetl in Mexico and Fujiyama in Japan. You'll swim in the Dead Sea and in the fire-filled waters of the Blue Grotto. You'll visit New York City and the tombs of the Pharaohs, Moscow and ancient Pompeii, the Rock of Gibraltar and Timbuctoo (yes, this is too a real city named Timbuctoo!). The Complete Book of Marvels will take you to all these places and many more.
