À propos de cet audio
*AN INSTANT INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER!*
*An Audible Most Anticipated Listen!*
From YouTube’s Map Men comes a funny and fascinating journey into the maps that messed up: big time!
In their long-awaited debut, Mark Cooper-Jones and Jay Foreman (aka, the Map Men) bring their highly infectious enthusiasm for everything map-related to the printed page for the very first time, in a brilliantly entertaining and eye-catching tome.
Packed with humor and fascinating facts, the book takes a deep dive into the world’s most baffling and absurd map blunders. From past miscalculations to modern mishaps, each chapter uncovers a unique tale of cartographic chaos—and the people responsible for it.
Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.
Editorial Review
Can you really trust that map?
We may not use them nearly as much as we once did, but it’s impossible to deny the appeal of a good map—or even a bad one, for that matter. YouTubers Jay Foreman and Mark Cooper-Jones, a.k.a. the “Map Men,” are exploring the hilarious, chaotic, and at times outright awful world of cartography with their debut audiobook. Mixing comedy, geography, and history,
This Way Up is a reminder that while maps aren’t always reliable, they’re always worth diving into. It’s also a celebration of the artistry and science of mapmaking, filled with fascinating facts and insights. —Michael C., Audible Editor
