101 Great Wonders that Shaped the World is an abridged form of collection from the ever-knoval wonders of the world. It includes wonders from ancient times to modern times. Egyptian civilization, culture, natural wonders, palaces, in which some of them are forgotten, some still remain, and some other only in books. Natural calamities and wars destroyed a good number of monuments, which were accounted as wonders. Great Wall of China, Colosseum of Rome, . Forbidden City, Cologne Cathedral, Taj Mahal, etc., still existing but they are facing the threatening of dilapidation. Machu Picchu, Petra, Prague, etc., are forgotten wonders. However, there are many in this collection of wonders that are surprisingly standing still with their head high. The selected wonders are dealt with thematically and the book is confined to particular but important wonders. Did it discuss laboriously or shortly, is not the concern but the lucidity. Precisely, the book is offering everything intact.
