I just finished a great book, You Are Here: Personal Geographies and Other Maps of the Imagination by Katharine Harmon. The book has several essays and a very inventive, intriguing collection of maps. I've continued to research different approaches and topics for my thesis and this book has been a great inspiration. I had to laugh at the below map, I saw it after I finished my last Font File post. Sorry for the quality, my scanner is acting funny. I wonder what kind of city Bodoni would be like. From the looks of this map, I'd like to visit Gillsands- I picture white sand beaches with fun, classic cabanas that never go out of style! I am happy to see that the Northern Island has a good train transportation infrastructure too! Oh, if only I were headed to a warm island now...sigh.
