Content:
In the age of GPS, we take cartographic literacy for granted. We should not; the ability to find meaning in maps is the fruit of a long process of exposure and instruction. A "carto-coded" America - a nation in which maps are pervasive and meaningful - had to be created. The 'Social Life of Maps in America, 1750-1860' tracks American cartography's spectacular rise to its unprecedented cultural influence.
