Description
The debut book from the YouTube sensation and all-round cartographical nerds, The Map Men!
In their long-awaited debut, YouTube’s Map Men bring their highly infectious enthusiasm for everything map-related to the printed page for the very first time, in a brilliantly entertaining and eye-catching tome.
Packed with humour and fascinating facts, This Way Up takes a deep dive into the world’s most intriguing and baffling map blunders. From ancient miscalculations to modern mishaps, each chapter uncovers a unique tale of cartographic chaos and the people responsible for it. These aren’t just ordinary mistakes – they are spectacularly wrong maps that tell a story of adventure, error, and unexpected humour, with each one offering a new piece to the puzzle of ‘What on earth happened there?’
This Way Up is a celebration of everything maps from everyone’s favourite cartography nerds, Mark Cooper-Jones and Jay Foreman: the Map Men.
