THE MAP THAT CHANGED THE WORLD

I have just finished reading this wonderful book by Simon Winchester. So much so, that I got onto the Bookmooch site to see if any of his other books were available.
Lucky enough to mooch The Surgeon of Crowthorne.
The story is basically non-fiction, and tells how William Smith was the founder of geology in England. Fascinating details of other people in that era, and lots of historical facts as well.
I was going to list the book on the Bookmooch site, but decided to keep it for a re-read.
