This anonymous blogger draws from a bottomless archive of cartographical oddities to change the way you see the world. Every map here represents a dream: Jack Kerouac's sketch of the route for the 1947 trip that would inspire On The Road; the 1639 map by inept explorer Johannes Vingboons which shows California as an island; Batman's Gotham City; a diplomat's failed 1915 plan to divide the Middle East into French and British dominions; and more every week.
