I received a copy of Maphead today. It is written by the Jeopardy whiz Ken Jennings.
It looks like a light and easy read. Mr. Jennings is a self- described Maphead defined as one who loves all things about maps old and new.

They talked about this book yesterday on Fresh Air.

Rather interesting I thought and definitely worth a listen.
