| Review: | Glaciers are found on high mountains near the Equator. These glaciers are sensitive indicators of climatic and environmental change. This book contains almost 200 black and white photographs, maps and charts of the major glaciers found in the equatorial regions of East Africa, the Ecuadorian Andes and New Guinea covering the period late-1800s to the present day. The way in which the glaciers have receded over the years can be clearly seen. |
