Sketch maps, despite their intuitive, informal appearance and seemingly naïve use, are intellectual devices and efficient tools that shape the geographical imagination, regardless of the drawing skills of their makers. By delineating the silhouettes of nations, we express territorial knowledge and geopolitical stereotypes that, although shaped at school from an early age, organized the way we interact with the world. why do we still need to draw maps? What is behind our common and naturalized practice of sketching maps? This innovative book deciphers why and how the intuitive mechanisms behind sketch mapping activate multiple conscious and unconscious knowledges about place and space.

Excerpt from A New Method With Geography: Illustrating the Use of the Sketch-Map There has, in recent year, been much discussion on the subject of map-drawing as an aid in the study of Geography; and, while many good teachers strongly advocate it, some equally good teachers as strongly oppose it. The opposition is founded mainly on the fact that it takes up too much valuable time. And, who will say that this objection is not well taken? Pupils have been encouraged to spend weeks in the mechanical construction of maps into whose real meaning and relative proportions they took but little trouble to inquire, but rather spent their time in tracing outlines and coloring surfaces according to some model (usually the map in the book) which lay before them. This mechanical accuracy of copying is, in itself, not a bad thing, but it does not develop the faculty of location nor teach the pupil anything about Geography. To draw maps according to some cartographic diagram, or design, is to defeat the object intended to be gained, and hence, many of our best teachers have warred against map-drawing. The Sketching of maps from memory at once sets aside these objections and retains all that is favorable. This exercise when rightly conducted is a most valuable aid, and the following lessons have been arranged to assist teachers and pupils in its execution. The pupils should take their places at the black-board, and at the direction of the teacher draw the boundary lines, - drawing the same lines at the same time. In this way the outline may be discussed and criticised at different points and its accuracy determined from their memory of positions and relative proportions. Mountains, rivers and lakes should then be sketched, and discussed as to their location, trend, and extent. The capitals and other important cities should then be located.

Ten-year-old Persimmony Smudge lives a boring life on the Island in the Middle of Everything, but she longs for adventure. And she soon gets it when she overhears a life-altering secret and suddenly finds herself in the middle of an amazing journey. It turns out that Mount Majestic, the rising and falling mountain in the center of the island, is not really a mountain - it's the belly of a sleeping giant! It's up to Persimmony and her friend Worvil to convince the island's quarreling inhabitants that a giant is sleeping in their midst and must not be awakened. The question is, will she be able to do it?
