'The globe seemed to be traversed in all directions and meticulously mapped. But something had been overlooked, something had escaped the atlases.
An entire continent at that: Terra Ultima .”

And what a continent: it is colossal and completely unique.
Nature could take its course without human intervention.

Explorer Raoul Deleo found Terra Ultima after years of searching. With colourful, detailed drawings he reports on his expeditions and the wonderful animals, plants and landscapes he encountered.

Terra Ultima already caused excitement within science. But now everyone can get acquainted with the unknown part of the world. Noah J. Stern, fellow explorer and biologist, was given access to Deleo's archive especially for this book. He made a representative selection of prints and notes, so that everyone can form a picture of this fascinating new continent.
