Native names are only part of the fascinating story of Off the Map, an amusing, fact-filled book that recharts geography and human history through the eyes of intrepid seafarers, arrogant imperialists, feuding neighbors, and bumbling tourists. "Cartography is 20 percent geography and science", states author Derek Nelson. "The other 80 percent is ignorance, myth, greed, the arbitrary, impulsive, and ironic, further snarled in history and politics". With Off the Map, the four corners of the globe (a biblical phrase that resulted in the belief that the earth was square) will be re-discovered.
