Prepare to explore our world as you've never seen it before! This collection of astounding, fun and beautiful maps explains everything about Planet Earth (and some other places!), including everything from the travels of Marco Polo to a map of the world's most disgusting food.
It's a treasure trove of quirky and essential data, presented in fun, fascinating map form. If you want to know where the world's dog and cat breeds come from, what the Earth looked like 170 million years ago, where the best place in the world is to put a solar panel, how to find the hidden scene in the map of the USA, who brings Christmas presents across Europe, and even what the Earth looks like to dolphins, then this is the book for you!
