The third edition of "Maps and Civilization" incorporates numerous revisions, features new material throughout the book, and includes a new alphabetized bibliography.
Praise for previous editions of "Maps and Civilization"
"A marvelous compendium of map lore. Anyone truly interested in the development of cartography will want to have his or her own copy to annotate, underline, and index for handy referencing."--L. M. Sebert, "Geomatica"
