Transit Maps of the World
by Mark Ovenden
I love maps. I'm also quite fond of public transit. So when I heard of this book, billed as the "World's First Collection of Every Urban Train Map on Earth", I naturally had to borrow and read it. But I was unfortunately left with a frustrated desire to pack a bag, grab my passport and go traveling.
As a coffee table book, I'm sure most people would find it pleasant waiting room material. But I would say, "check it out".
