Jerry Brotton is Professor of Renaissance Studies at Queen Mary University of London.
In his recent work Jerry Brotton, as a leading expert in the history of maps and Renaissance
cartography, presents the histories of twelve maps belonging to different eras from the
mystical representations of ancient times to Google Earth. He examines the stories of these
twelve maps as having important roles in the context of regional and global perspectives of
past and today's world. His book is an interesting and significant contribution to the
interdisciplinary approach between history and geography. In addition to the twelve maps,
thirty four figures and fifty six illustrations are included in this book, which aims to tell
history through maps.
