I may not be a certified cartophile, but I do use maps often in my practice as a landscape designer. Where and how water flows through the land can be difficult to comprehend without one. Plus, they're not only fascinating and informative, but at times quite beautiful.
I love maps, especially old maps and loved the detail from the Fisk map, as you highlight I am imagining the work and hours to develop that. This is a very informative post, so much info and well presented, thanks. It was great to see examples from across the world, especially Sheffield where I worked for many years. Thanks for the book recommendation too.

Both fascinating and beautiful!
