Waterfalls: 75 Most Magnificent Waterfalls

by George Lewis

This lavish book features 75 of the most beautiful, extraordinary, powerful, or romantic waterfalls from all over the world. Full-color photographs capture the essence of some of the smallest yet most beautiful falls; from graceful multi-step cascades; the picturesque splendor of Switzerland's Staubbachfall; the titanic majesty of Niagra Falls, Canada, to the highest, Angel Falls in Venezuela, which plunges from a staggering 3,212 ft (979 m); and the broadest, mile-wide (1.7 km-wide) Victoria Falls on southern Africa's Zambezi River, which can only be fully appreciated from the air.
