Off the Map: Lost Spaces, Invisible Cities, Forgotten Islands, Feral Places and What They Tell Us About the World by Alastair Bonnett

4.0

---

Once again Alastair Bonnett continues the conversion about Geography in his trademark accessible style. This collection of geographical oddities not only serves to ignite the curiosity of the reader and teach them something of the strange and often transient places found across the world, but in each short section provides a distinct message about the way people practice Geography in their everyday lives. As an academic Geographer, I think that Bonnett does great work through this book in asserting the need and want for geographical learning and highlights the importance of space/place in every interaction we have, without coming across as too obtusely academic. A uniquely accessible Geographic study.
