Description
|
|
|
|
A 6th-century world map shaped like a traveling trunk; a relief map pressed into an ancient Greek coin; maps illuminated with dog-headed men and claw-footed sea monsters; maps charting imaginary kingdoms and real new worlds—this handsomely illustrated book introduces readers 8 and up to various wonderful and whimsical attempts to render our world. It begins with a photo of an ancient Babylonian map etched onto a clay tablet and progresses to a radar image of a Russian volcano taken from the space shuttle Endeavor.
