Hiking is the best way to get to know the landscapes on Paxoi. The
scale of the landscape and the details that comprise it demand a
tranquil approach. Most paths are on modest inclines, are clearly
marked out among the dry wall masonry and some of them are
stonepaved. Wandering among the olive groves with lofty trees, one
can find intricate pilasters of some olden gateway, see abandoned
olive presses and proud windmills and enjoy the sunset from the
edge of limestone cliffs.
The years between the end of the American Revolution and the
beginning of the Civil War were crucial ones in the history of
American coastal charting. At the beginning, foreign charts,
principally British, were available; and a few of American origin.
The latter were largely copies of British charts, and a few were
compiled by local shipmasters and pilots. The more successful
publishers were able to compile hydrographic data using their own
resources, and added corrections in new editions of their charts. A
"survey of the coast" was initiated by Congress in 1807 under
Thomas Jefferson's administration. Delays due to the War of 1812
and political disagreements slowed progress and the production of
the first important chart, that of New York harbour, was not
published until 1843. Private publishers filled an important void
between the time the Coast Survey was initiated and the time they
produced usable charts. Data on the private publishers has been
collected for publication here for the first time. Nevertheless,
the survey was to increase the availability of charts which were
accurate within the framework of hydrographic knowledge at the
time. The Coast Survey succeeded in charting the entire coastline
by the beginning of the Civil War. This volume is the first
definitive study of these charts.

'AN ORIGINAL AND TIMELY ODYSSEY INTO OUR MYSTERIOUS UNDERWORLD . .
. THRILLING PROOF THAT SCIENCE AND IMAGINATION SHARE THE GROUND
BENEATH OUR FEET' Nicholas Crane, presenter of BBC2's Coast and
Great British Journeys If you were to peel back the Earth's surface
like an orange, then take a sly peek underneath, what extraordinary
things would you see? Subterranea is where the world's remaining
mysteries are yet to be found. For millennia, across nations and
cultures, it has been a hotbed of fantastical stories. It's where
humans have kept their most sacred treasures and their darkest
secrets. It's where we have found evidence of our past and may, at
some point, find an escape route for our uncertain future. But what
would we find there today? From the underground cities of
Cappadocia to smuggling tunnels on the US-Mexico border, caves full
of tiny blind dragons and a seed vault located 1300km inside the
Arctic circle, Subterranea demonstrates that the world below our
feet is every bit as vivid and evocative as the world we see around
us. Lavishly illustrated and replete with maps and photographs of
little-explored locations, Subterranea is the unique, untold and
utterly unforgettable story of our planet from the inside.
