A book that has a map

[Stina]

I love maps! I miss the days when it was almost a standard feature in mystery novels. Maybe I will find one in an old Agatha Christie this year. It'll be like a little treasure hunt. What gems have you found?

Completed this one with Imagined London by Anna Quindlen

So many travel narratives have a map, which is helpful, and the old mysteries. A good historical account may have one also.

I just read "Troy" by Stephen Fry. It has a map at the beginning, although it is all so very tiny. Strange in a hardback book with huge typeface in the main part of the book!

One of my First Reads books in January was Sadie Sprocket Builds a Rocket, and Sadie includes a map of her trip to Mars, so I counted it for this prompt.

Just completed The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time. Multiple maps in there and completely unlike anything I’ve read. LOVED it!

I'd forgotten that there were maps in that book.

I recently read City of the Soul: A Walk in Rome which also had a map -- although it was missing a lot of the sites that the book talked about, which was disappointing.

That is disappointing!
