People thought that they had already gone to every single corner of the earth and that everything had already been mapped out meticulously. But as it turns out, they were wrong. One place, an entire continent, was overlooked and escaped the atlases: Terra Ultima. In this book, Deleo reports of his expeditions in colourful and detailed illustrations. His diary entries tell of the hardships the explorer had to overcome and the special encounters he had.
