Route 66, Center for American Places, Staunton, VA, 2005, is an innovative history of the great American highway. Written by Arthur Krim, Denis was deeply involved in readying the book for publication. His “Edited by” credit on the title page only hints at his involvement. The book won the J. B. Jackson Prize for 2006, awarded by the Association of American Geographers, for "conveying the insights of professional geography in language that is interesting and attractive to a lay audience.” |

There’s lots new in the Making Maps: Third Edition, just released from Guilford Press. Denis and John have thoroughly revised a book that now bears only passing resemblance to the first edition of eleven years ago: revised chapter structure, new examples, much more color, an expanded comic strip, but in even fewer pages! This is not just another boring old cartography textbook. It’s a book about making maps! |
