This book seemed to be mostly a vehicle for displaying other artists work that was made with maps. It was nice as a gallery of work but thats not what I was looking for from a book.2 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Another great creative book using mapsBy A.

Nicely done.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. from elaborate fine art to simple arts crafts displaysBy MichelleMy daughters new husband really loves old maps. so she wanted to surprise him by decorating the office in their new home with maps. and so I got her this book. Its a serious walkthrough of a wide range of decorating styles and approaches. from elaborate fine art to simple arts crafts displays. I like how map motifs and literal maps are both used in so many different ways. Shes finding that printing old maps she finds online to be a way to save money moving forward. and to discover all sorts of maps -- everything from medieval maps. to vintage Disneyland maps. to the classic Middle Earth map that Tolkien drew himself. She was able to do a variety of things with the new study. and hes thrilled. We both recommend this book.
