Book Description
Display label text from Lie of the Land: the Secret Life of Maps, British Library, 2001-2002: "Map of the British Empire, 1926 This map is not content with simply recording the British Empire at its greatest geographical extent after World War One. To impress British children in their geography lessons, the British Empire is shown in red and to the best possible advantage. Centring the map over 40 degrees west of Greenwich gives an excuse for showing Australia twice. The Mercator projection makes Canada look far larger than the United States and only the British parts of Antarctica are shown. Including shipping routes chiefly to and from Imperial destinations enhances the message. W. & A.K. Johnston, Illustrated Atlas of the British Empire. London, [1926]. Maps.29.b.28".
