On The Map: Why the world looks the way it does Simon Garfield Main edition
On The Map: Why the world looks the way it does
Simon Garfield
From the early sketches of philosophers and explorers through to Google Maps and beyond, this title examines how maps both relate and realign our history. It explores the legendary, impassable mountains of Kong, the role of cartography in combatting cholera, the 17th-century Dutch craze for Atlases, the Norse discovery of America and more.
