John Speed (1551/52-1629). A New and Accurat Map of the World Drawne according to ye truest Descriptions lastest Discoveries & best observations yt have beene made by English or Strangers. London, 1651.

This map first appeared in A Prospect of the Most Famous Parts of the World, published by George Humble in 1627. George Humble had previously printed Speed’s The Theatre of the Empire of Great Britain, a pioneering work that mapped English counties and maps. The Prospect was a very “English” atlas: it is the first world atlas by an Englishman (though not the first world atlas to be published in England) and does not appear to have circulated much outside of England. It is unclear just how involved Speed was in its production, as he had gone blind in 1625 and the Prospect’s organization in general is not as meticulous as one might otherwise expect from Speed. The map was engraved, possibly by Abraham Goos (fl. 1614-1643), and then hand-colored for sale.

🐉RATING: 🔥🔥🔥🔥/5 I was up until 2am last night finishing The Stardust Thief by Chelsea Abdullah, and it was worth every sleepless minute. After reading a rave review in @pastemagazine, I was eager to get my hands on this book, soon after its release. Having high expectations before turning to the first page, I was not disappointed. The Stardust Thief is a solid, well-paced fantasy with strong character development and evocative world building. Set in the desert, the novel draws from the Middle Eastern classic One Thousand and One Nights and highlights the power of storytelling. Stories can inspire, teach lessons, and rewrite history. There are stories crafted from legend and stories we tell from our daily lives. Some stories are shared and some we keep to ourselves. The plot forms around the quest for an ancient and magical relic. Loulie the merchant, charged with this impossible task by the Sultan, is accompanied by her Jinn bodyguard Qadir and escorted by Prince Mazen and Aisha the warrior thief. As with all quests, the travelers face life-threatening challenges along the way that keep the reader turning pages. The Stardust Thief is filled with ancient magic, hidden ruins, friendship, secrets, and betrayal. I’m looking forward to the next volume of The Sandsea Trilogy, which promises more epic magical world building and new adventures for characters I’ve grown to love.

Globally, the number of Internet users increased from only 413 million in 2000 to over 3.4 billion in 2016. The one-billion barrier was crossed in 2005. Every day over the past five years, an average of 640,000 people went online for the first time. But how many people from each country are online? In the maps, we see the total number of users by country, and the percentage of a country’s population who are users. #gis #map #maps #mapping #mapmaker #mapmakers #mapofeurope #cartography #mapmonday #geography #geographyteacher #cartographyart #worldmaps #mapstagram #worldculture #teachersforteachers #politicstoday #countriesoftheworld #internet #internets #internetbusiness #digitalmarketing #internets https://www.instagram.com/p/Cfyf-OQIuXy/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🧭MAP MONDAY🧭 I started reading Ninth House yesterday in hopes of finishing for a Tuesday discussion. So I’m reading along, and I’m at page 50. But opposite page 50 is page 19. Not good! 😫 Turns out there’s a whole section missing. And I am not willing to just skip it. Fortunately I remembered that I also owned Ninth House on Kindle. Crisis averted! I have also ordered fancy special editions of Ninth House and Hell Bent. Now instead of gifting my original copy, I can use it for some crafty book project. ❓Are you crafty? Have you ever destroyed a book for a project? Any cool book crafts I should consider for my misprinted Ninth House? #ninthhouse #leighbardugo #mapmonday #darkacademia #fantasyreads #bookswithmaps #yaleuniversity #secretsocieties #honeydukesbookclub #bookstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CoDAizQrFXm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
