From the Author
Geography? Fun? Can't be. It is!
From the notion that Columbus thought the world is shaped like a woman's breast to a guide to all those countries whose names keep changing, this book is my attempt to make geography more than learning state capitals. Because geography is really about human curiosity and I try to make it fun, human and memorable.
