Great City Maps: A historical journey through maps, plans, and paintings

Product Information

DK brings unrivalled clarity to a wide range of topics with a unique combination of words and pictures, put together to spectacular effect. See what is around you on a map that shows a zoom able level of detail with many location related information. Nevertheless, panoramas like this one, or the one in Bernhard von Breydenbach's Travelogue from 1483, had more narrative or representative functions. We obviously also have maps with no text if you so prefer, and you can choose between different amazing colours. Should you feel however, that you want to go a bit outside your comfort zone, well that's a different story.

For a playful effect, we have cool world maps where the shape of the countries are made up of the letters in their names. On my spouse's device (galaxy s9), the map we selected stops downloading halfway through, always at the same time while on my device (galaxy s9+) the map downloads with no problem.DK acts as the parent company for Alpha Books, publisher of the Idiot's Guides series and Prima Games, video gaming publishers, as well as the award-winning travel publisher, Rough Guides.

Maybe you'll give the frame a miss although a picture frame is a great way of emphasising the posters.

The Nuremberg Chronicle, which first appeared in 1493, is one of the most important collections of city views of the late Middle Ages, with over 100 such illustrations. With a compact, flat city centre, finding your way around Cardiff is straightforward, but sometimes a map helps! Keep in mind that anyone can view public collections - they may also appear in recommendations and other places.
