Hobbies • Books

At the heart of University College London lies a long-forgotten map library packed with thousands of maps and atlases. After Professor James Cheshire stumbled upon it, he spent three years sifting through hundreds of drawers to see what was there. He was stunned to uncover some of the most significant maps and atlases from the last two centuries.
