## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ History 101
*by X***7 on January 27, 2024*

I saw this book while searching for something else. As soon as I saw it, I knew the chances of buying it were strong. After reading the reviews, it was mine! The title of the book and the contents are worlds apart. The book contains photos of maps from the highly detailed to a sparse reference and everything in-between. Some are one-of-a-kind, others are well known. However, instead of being just a historical reference for maps, it is more, a whole lot more. The meat and potatoes is a crash course in the history of the world and the United States, to include the American Revolution. The maps are used to highlight specific battles and important discoveries in history. The maps give you the ability to view the battle space and understand the situational awareness of the conflict. While some of the maps are more topographically accurate, others are just lines containing notes and rough sketches. I’m not a teacher and if I was, this would be the recommended textbook for a history course. An outstanding read!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent reference for collectors.
*by A***R on July 15, 2025*

*by G***N on April 17, 2024*

In this captivating volume, the exploration and birth of America come alive through the lens of hand-colored maps and engravings from various periods. Before the advent of photography and television, these meticulously crafted maps conveyed the thrill of undiscovered lands, the allure of exploration, and the strategic guidance for armies during the Indian Wars and the American Revolution.The book provides context and insight into the historical significance of each map. From Renaissance explorers' exotic maps to the grand maps of the Golden Age, readers are treated to a visual feast. The thrilling battle-maps and charts from this pivotal period are also featured. The book includes paintings by masters of art from that era. These enhance our understanding of how America developed over time.By examining these maps, we gain a deeper understanding of the forces that shaped America—the ambition, struggle, and glory that attended its exploration and formation.In summary, "Mapping America" is a treasure trove for history enthusiasts, art lovers, and anyone curious about the intricate cartography that shaped the nation.

Those should have been printed on single page landscape format.
