Mountains show in its pages? (5)
I believe the answer is:
atlas
'mountains' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for atlas that I've seen before include "Sort of book" , "Cartographer's work" , "Giant" , "Segment of spine" , "Titan who supported the heavens" .)
