Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. 12 1/8" x 11 1/4", 256 pages, comprehensively illustrated in colour and black and white, bibliography and websites. Cartography is both a science and an art; as such, it provides marvellous waypoints for changes in different cultures through history. But…it can also be a weapon, or at least a potentially destructive undertaking. Anyone who doubts this need only trace the bitter history of the Balkans or of the entire continent of Africa back to what may have seemed some rational and innocuous boundaries sketched on paper. Some of the maps in this book had devastating consequences, such as the 1885 map of Africa that carved up the continent among the European colonial powers. Other maps are simply beautiful, such as the dot painting "Dreamtime" map of the Australian Aborigines or the Jainist cosmographical chart of the 15th century. Others are mysterious, like the rock maps of Siberia, or scientifically outstanding for various reasons, like Captain Cook's map of New Zealand or Landsat mapping from space. Some are fun, like the map of Middle Earth in Lord of the Rings, the most printed map of a non-existent place ever! What all the maps chosen have is their own fascinating story: not just the escape maps and military maps. The cartographic achievement of Lewis and Clark in mapping the West is one of the great adventures, as is the British mapping of all India - which took 60 years. While approachable as a series of amazing short stories, the maps are organized to explain the development of cartography and illuminate the historical, scientific, and sometimes political background.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Square 4to (30.5 x 29 cm), 256 pp. Publisher's cloth with dust jacket (minor shelf wear). Cartography provides remarkable waypoints for understanding changes in different cultures through history, both scientifically and artistically. It can also serve as an expression of political struggle and a…spiration. Some maps have even been used as weapons--anyone who doubts this need only trace the bitter history of the Balkans. Some of the maps in this book had devastating consequences, such as the 1885 map of Africa that divided the continent among European colonial powers. Others are simply beautiful, like the 'Dream Time' maps of the Australian Aborigines or the brilliantly engraved Dutch maps of the 16th century. Still others are scientifically groundbreaking, such as William Smith's geological map of England and Wales, which profoundly changed our understanding of geological forces and revolutionized paleontology. The maps explored here include imaginative works, such as the maps of Middle-Earth from Tolkien's Lord of the Rings--arguably the most mapped fictional place ever. Some are sinister, even disturbing, like the Nazi 'Utopian' city plan. Each of these maps has its own fascinating story. While presented as a series of extraordinary short stories, they are also organized to illustrate the chronological development of cartography and uncover the scientific and sometimes political context behind them. (From the blurb).
