These 100 full-color infographic maps - from purely geographical to highly political - reveal remarkable new ways to understand the culture and history of North America. From where in the contiguous states can you head south into Canada, or north into Mexico? Which states have had the most female governors? Learn the answers to these questions and more in North American Maps for Curious Minds - a one-of-a-kind atlas packed with eye-opening maps for the geographically curious and travel obsessed. Featuring surprising facts (what are the highest-paid public employees in each state? Hint: Most are football coaches), whimsical data (which US latitudes are home to the most Waffle Houses? ), and insightful connections (who knew the Midwest self-identifies as the most extroverted region of the country? ), this book illuminates the unexpected contours of geography, history, politics, and many more fascinating facets of the continent and culture. Each of these 100 graphics will change the way you see North America - and your place on the map.
As a boy in the 1990s, Matthew Bucklan eagerly awaited each new issue of National Geographic. He now works in audiobook production and lives in the Cleveland area. Victor Cizek distinctly remembers the first time he discovered the power of maps: at age seven, when he bought a picture atlas on a trip to Washington, DC. He grew up one of six kids in northeast Ohio and still calls Cleveland home. Ian Wright runs Brilliant Maps, one of the most popular cartographic sites on the internet. Originally from Canada, he now lives in the UK.
