This is the first book to catalog comparative maps and tableaux
that visualize the heights and lengths of the world's mountains and
rivers. Produced predominantly in the nineteenth century, these
beautifully rendered maps emerged out of the tide of exploration
and scientific developments in measuring techniques. Beginning with
the work of explorer Alexander von Humboldt, these historic
drawings reveal a world of artistic and imaginative difference.
Many of them give way-and with visible joy-to the power of fantasy
in a mesmerizing array of realistic and imaginary forms. Most of
the maps are from the David Rumsey Historical Map Collection at
Stanford University.
