Rebecca Solnit's 'Infinite City' Maps SF in a Whole New Light | 7x7
“Cartography used to be both an art and a science. I wanted to return to that.” This was my present to myself, as a souvenir, from SF. Looking forward to reading it properly - especially all the areas I never had a chance to visit - and can already confirm the maps are gorgeous. But really, it's about the whole package.

"From 30th June to 25th August, I'll be following a route across Scotland from the south western tip of Mull to the outskirts of Edinburgh, as charted in Chapters 14–27 of Robert Louis Stevenson’s ‘Kidnapped’." I remember talking to Tim about this at BookCamp; it's great to see it in-the-world.
