Présentation On The Map de Simon Garfield Format Broché
- Livre Histoire
Résumé : Maps fascinate us. They chart our understanding of the world and they log our progress, but above all they tell our stories. From the early sketches of philosophers and explorers through to Google Maps and beyond, Simon Garfield examines how maps both relate and realign our history.
With a historical sweep ranging from Ptolemy to Twitter, Garfield explores the legendary, impassable (and non-existent) mountains of Kong, the role of cartography in combatting cholera, the 17th-century Dutch craze for Atlases, the Norse discovery of America, how a Venetian monk mapped the world from his cell and the Muppets' knack of instant map-travel. Along the way are pocket maps of dragons, Mars, murders and more, with plenty of illustrations and prints to signpost the route.
From the bestselling and widely-adored author of Just My Type, On The Map is a witty and irrepressible examination of where we've been, how we got there and where we're going.

'Garfield has a genius for being sparked to life by esoteric enthusiasm and charming readers with his delight.' (Iain Finlayson, Times) 'Simon Garfield's new book is a rollicking sweep through map history, packed with curiosities and written with verve... a great book.' (Mark Wilson, Independent on Sunday) 'Garfield allows his varied, expertly researched stories to speak for themselves, and in so doing helps us see that there are fewer things in life more useful, rewarding and beautiful than a map that does what it's supposed to.' (David Clack, Daily Telegraph) 'Garfield's genial prose twinkles with the delight of discovery' (Tom Hawker, Wanderlust)
