On The Map 1: The Map Makers

Huffduffed by BryanDavis on

Episode one of On The Map from BBC Radio 4.

Self-confessed map addict Mike Parker explores modern cartography. If a picture paints a thousand words, a map can paint a million. They help us navigate our way through unfamiliar landscapes and cities, entice us into new places and give us a bigger picture of the world we inhabit.

Mike considers the maps he first fell in love with as a teenager — Ordnance Survey maps.
