wandering_meditations 's review for:
A History of the World in 12 Maps
by Jerry Brotton
informative
medium-paced
very detailed. If you're interested in the history of world map-making, this book is for you.
Sadly, there is no mention of 'controversial' ancient maps, such as those depicting lands that don't apparently exist (Atlantis, lands beyond, etc). These maps are real and exist, so I would've expected them to at least be discussed in some way.
