Maphead by Ken Jennings

Maphead: Charting the Wide, Weird World of Geography Wonks by Ken Jennings
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Ken Jennings, of Jeopardy fame, writes about his life-long love of maps.  He also talks about development of maps, map collectors, "country collectors", geocacheing, and map rallying - an unusual activity indeed.  I haven't read any of his other books, but his writing is good, and choice of topics interesting.  He goes to a great deal of effort to talk to people interested in the topics he is covering.


Good read for anyone interested in maps for themselves.
