STRANGE MAPS

Written by Lee King

Okay you can be forgiven for thinking that maps are not the most exciting of subjects to have a book about, but you will think differently when you actually see this. Strange Maps ($24) is a positively intriguing collection of over 100 maps that are totally out o the ordinary and also manage to blend art, pop culture and history into the mix to create a unique atlas that all of humanity can appreciate. These maps span centuries, continents and even the realms of both outer space and our imaginations, brilliant.
