Mapping America: Using maps to tell America’s “origin story” (Episode 631) - a podcast by Yak Channel Podcast Network

The first two guys I’m picking for my “imaginary bar trivia team” draft are Neal Asbury and Professor Jean-Pierre Isbouts. Together, they co-authored the stunning, full-color, new book, “Mapping America: The Incredible Story and Stunning Hand-Colored Maps and Engravings that Created the United States.” I thought this interview was absolutely fascinating. It appealed to the collector in me, and to my natural curiosity about history. I hope you enjoy it (and check out the book)!
