On a side of the planet no human had ever seen, different groups arrived from different directions, and not all at the same time. The land they reached was fully inhabited by megafauna--mastodons, giant bears, mammoths, saber-toothed cats, enormous bison, and sloths that stood one story tall. These Ice Age explorers, hunters, and families were wildly outnumbered and many would themselves have been prey to the much larger animals. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In \u003ci\u003eAtlas of a Lost World\u003c\/i\u003e, Craig Childs blends science and personal narrative to upend our notions of where these people came from and who they were. How they got here, persevered, and ultimately thrived is a story that resonates from the Pleistocene to our modern era, and reveals how much has changed since the time of mammoth hunters, and how little. Through it, readers will see the Ice Age, and their own age, in a whole new light.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCRAIG CHILDS\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eApocalyptic Planet.\u003c\/i\u003e He has been a regular commentator for NPR's \u003ci\u003eMorning Edition, \u003c\/i\u003e and his work has appeared in \u003ci\u003eThe New York Times, \u003c\/i\u003e the\u003ci\u003e Los Angeles Times, Men's Journal, Outside, The Sun, \u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eOrion Magazine.\u003c\/i\u003e Awards he has received include the Ellen Meloy Desert Writers Award, the Rowell Award for the Art of Adventure, the Sigurd F.
