- What did you like best about Off the Edge of the Map? What did you like least?
- I enjoyed the stories about the explorers and their journeys. The presentation was clear and concise and tried not to be sensationalistic or overplay any part of the tales, which was perfect. Well written stuff, thanks Michael!
My sole criticism is with the performance. The narrator makes no effort to try to pronounce non-English names or places words correctly. It would be forgivable once, but it happens nearly every time a non-English name comes up.
But that’s minor compared to the content of the book. I found the book to be a perfect introduction to each explorer. Actually, I wish I’d gotten the paper version so I could read the bibliography, because now I’ve got to find some books on Ibn Battuta and Richard Burton….
