Chart a course through the history of cartography and discover more than 60 of the world's most influential maps from the ancient Babylonian map hewn into stone and the hand-painted maps of Medieval Europe to the eye-popping illustrated plans of modern cities, iconic transport maps, and scientific models of the ocean floor. Drawing upon geography, science, exploration, art, culture, and mythology, maps have existed almost as long as the human race. They do more than simply describe the landscape - they also offer a unique window into the lives and beliefs of their creators. Great Maps shows how they have changed our understanding of the world, and features both entire maps and close-up visual tours that pull out key details that offer intriguing historical and cultural context. From maps of the world filled with fantastical monsters, through famous explorers discovering new continents, to the first road atlases and modern data-mapping and cartography, Great Maps explores in stunning photographic detail how maps have influenced and reflected our world throughout history.
