The Leisurely Historian… Comics, Cartoons, Computers, and Cultural History…

Cartography can be fun…

  • One of my favorite quotes about cartography, from Tom Stoppard's Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead...

    • Guildenstern: What a shambles! We're just not getting anywhere.
    Rosencrantz: Not even England. I don't believe in it anyway.
    Guildenstern: What?
    Rosencrantz: England.
    Guildenstern: Just a conspiracy of cartographers,  you mean?

  • From Deputydog's blog, a collection of AMAZING holes.

    I think 1989-92 were probably some of the greatest years for cartographers in recent history
