Lionel Grigson guides the reader on a sweeping global journey, chronicling the architectural triumphs, geological marvels, and cultural monuments that have captivated travellers and scholars for centuries, with a foreword by the celebrated broadcaster Cliff Michelmore lending the work an additional air of authority and adventure.\n\nRich in vivid detail and illustrated throughout with striking photography, this volume argues that wonder is not merely an aesthetic response but a profound recognition of human ingenuity and nature's incomprehensible scale. Grigson's prose is accessible yet authoritative, making the work equally suited to the armchair explorer and the seasoned globetrotter. Published by Golden Press for Australasian audiences, it stands as a handsome and enduring testament to the world's greatest spectacles — leaving the reader with an insatiable desire to witness these marvels firsthand.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49210252591323,"sku":"2026200013939-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/540da1ee-65cc-4db8-ba11-205fbf4355b2.png?v=1788268061","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200013939-secondhand-wonders-of-the-world","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
