Blurb:

For the newcomer and the old hand alike the Discworld can be a
fatally confusing planet. From the great city of Ankh-Morpork,
featuring a river you could skateboard across if it wasn't so
knobbly, to the distant Ramptop Mountains and the mysterious
Counterweight Continent, the Discworld is a place where Death
waits around every corner...

For safety's sake, you need a guide.

And here it is. Terry Pratchett and Stephen Briggs, respectively
chronicler and cartographer of the Discworld, have produced the
one and only definitive guide to the flat planet - its geography,
its flora and fauna, its (many) religions, its architecture and
customs, and its outstanding personalities.

What is a Quantum Weather Butterfly? What does Death keep on his
desk? Would you drink Bearhugger's Homeopathic Sipping Whiskey?
How are the kings of Ankh-Morpork different from the kings of Ankh?

Everything the Discworld traveller needs to know is contained in
these pages, together with useful maps and illustrations of
significant places and emblems in this unique world.
