The Traveler is a capable STEM learning tool for high school and college students, carrying over 4,000 place names and political boundaries on a 12" raised-relief blue-ocean ball, with French-language cartography throughout. It stands 16" tall on a durable, scratch-resistant base with a semi-meridian marked in degrees of latitude, sized to fit shelves, desktops and conference tables. Vivid colours highlight the raised relief and the political geography. Recommended for ages 8 and up.
