I've been trying to find some good books on cartography (I know the internet is full of useful information, but there is just something about a physical book). As I was searching for book I came across this site site http://www.brainpickings.org/index.php/2011/01/07/must-read-map-books/. which eventually lead me to Hand Maps http://www.handmaps.org/index.php . This site has user submitted maps that are hand drawn. With the so much cartography and map making done using a computer its really refreshing to see some hand drawn maps. Some are simple sketches of family trips while others are very detailed. This site has given me some inspiration and I'm thinking of taking the time to make a hand made map. Maybe it'll will be good enough to appear on Hand Maps.
