Hand Drawn Maps is a fun `how to' book about hand drawn
cartography. It is introduced by a brief history of maps and map
making, followed by five sections covering everything you need to
know to make your own maps. Section 1 covers the practicalities, so
by the end of it you are equipped to create your own map using
compasses, neatlines, cartouche, handlettering, and your own
symbols. Section 2 looks at different types of map, from picture
and word maps to architectural blueprints and video game maps.
Section 3 uses a wide range of examples to show the reader how to
create maps of places, from early strip maps used to describe the
journeys taken by 18th-century stagecoaches to dungeon and treasure
maps. Section 4 covers maps of ideas. There are exercises
throughout to enable the reader to build on the knowledge they have
just gained. The book is completed by six stand-alone projects.
