The book takes us into the deep abysses of the infinitely distant past, where centuries were nothing more than insignificant grains of sand in the giant hourglass of eternity, and where the beauty and horror of past worlds are shrouded in the veils of oblivion.

On the pages before us again countries come to life that in ancient times shone with sparkling greenery with silver ribbons of rivers, streams, mountain streams, countries that were covered with vast ancient forests, wide lakes, bottomless swamps, monotonous sandy desert or endless sea surfaces.
