Book excerpt: Excerpt from Philips' Pictorial Pocket Atlas and Gazetteer: 148 Pages of Maps, Pictures and Statistical Diagrams, With Gazetteer-Index of 18, 000 Names The first section consists of a series of physical-relief Maps printed on art paper and produced by an entirely new process, showing in a graphic, and at the same time, correct form, the relief of the various divisions of the earth's surface, the British Dominions being dealt with most fully. On these maps the principal heights are given, the mountains and rivers named, and the depths of the oceans shown by con tours and gradations of blue. The Pictorial Pages facing these are printed from copyright photographs and original sketches, the subjects being chosen with the idea of presenting characteristic examples of the scenery, industries and inhabitants of each division of the globe.

Download or read book The Frightened Land written by Jennifer Beningfield and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-11-07 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An investigation into the spatial politics of separation and division in South Africa, principally during the apartheid years, and the effects of these physical and conceptual barriers on the land. In contrast to the weight of literature focusing on post-apartheid South Africa, the focus of this book includes the spatial, political and cultural landscape practices of the apartheid government and also refers to contemporary work done in Australia, England and the US. It probes the uncertainty and ambiguity of identities and cultures in post-apartheid society in order to gain a deep understanding of the history that individuals and society now confront. Drawing on a wealth of research materials including literature, maps, newspapers, monuments, architectural drawings, government legislation, tourist brochures, political writing and oral histories, this book is well illustrated throughout and is a unique commentary on the spatial politics of a time of enormous change.

Download or read book Cartographies of Travel and Navigation written by James R. Akerman and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-11-15 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finding one’s way with a map is a relatively recent phenomenon. In premodern times, maps were used, if at all, mainly for planning journeys in advance, not for guiding travelers on the road. With the exception of navigational sea charts, the use of maps by travelers only became common in the modern era; indeed, in the last two hundred years, maps have become the most ubiquitous and familiar genre of modern cartography. Examining the historical relationship between travelers, navigation, and maps, Cartographies of Travel and Navigation considers the cartographic response to the new modalities of modern travel brought about by technological and institutional developments in the twentieth century. Highlighting the ways in which the travelers, operators, and planners of modern transportation systems value maps as both navigation tools and as representatives of a radical new mobility, this collection brings the cartography of travel—by road, sea, rail, and air—to the forefront, placing maps at the center of the history of travel and movement. Richly and colorfully illustrated, Cartographies of Travel and Navigation ably fills the void in historical literature on transportation mapping.
