Maps That Made History by Dr. Lez Smart
Requirements: .PDF reader, 20 MB
Overview: Few people can resist the appeal of old maps and plans. Even in these days of disposable mapping — from satellite navigation to customized road directions at the click of a mouse — the historical map continues to present a unique perspective on our changing world. Here we explore 25 glorious examples. The emphasis is on the story behind the map: what it reveals about its creator and users, from the first explorers to the railway builders. This thought-provoking collection features maps that chart societies as well as land, sea, and skies; maps that have influenced and inspired; and perhaps most revealing of all, maps that misrepresent.
Genre: Non-Fiction > History
