Science & Nature Biography & Memoir History
The Geo's Pick, Max de Vietri’s illustrated hardcover, follows an Australian geologist’s true adventures through rugged terrain and pivotal discoveries. This 2020 debut blends biography, earth-science insight and travelogue for readers who relish real-world exploration.
Crisp colour plates and field sketches bring remote landscapes to life while the 226-page narrative stays approachable for young adults and armchair prospectors alike. De Vietri’s warm storytelling turns technical moments into page-turning drama without ever feeling like a lecture.
The sturdy hardcover is in very good shape, showing only light thumbing on early pages and a tiny edge scuff—minor reminders that it has waited patiently for a new shelf. A solid find for collectors of Australian natural-history memoirs or anyone hunting an engaging geo-themed gift.
