Kären Wigen and Caroline Winterer, eds. Chicago, IL: University of Chicago Press, 2020. 272p. Hardcover, $45.00 (ISBN 978-0226718590). 2021-06-30 3 .pdf application/pdf 1756 71 48 The focus on design also elides the massive apparatus of labor and technology that underlies not just the production of maps, but the systems that allow historians to study them now, through map libraries and archives. By limiting the scope of the text to engagement with design strategies and their interpretation by map readers, this volume generally steers clear of po- litical questions related to the selective inclusion and labeling of geographic features, as well as the human costs of colonial occupations and wars enabled by maps (with the exception of American soldiers memorialized through battlefield tourism in the final chapter). cache/crl-25024.pdf txt/crl-25024.txt
