The Map That Changed the World: William Smith and the Birth of Modern Geology by Simon Winchester

4.0

Another great read (listen) by Winchester.
I am not terribly interested in geology but still the book was captivating at times.
This is Winchester at his finest, not much overlap with other texts if at all.
Great little side anecdotes (e.g. Uxbridge - any more would be a spoiler).
