Your City. Judged A sharp tongued and fierce witted full-color collection of maps of America’s greatest cities in all their brutally honest glory. When you move to a new city you look at a map to get you where you need to be; but a Google Map of San Francisco won’t tell you where you can get “Real Dim Sum†or where “The Worst Trader Joes Ever†is. Or if you’re visiting Chicago; you might want to see the Magnificent Mile; but not know it’s right next to where “Suburbanites Buy Drugs†and “Retired Mafioso.†This is where Judgmental Maps comes in – a no holds barred look at city life that is at once a love letter and hate mail from the very people who live there. What started as a joke between comedian Trent Gillaspie and his friends in Denver; quickly grew into a viral sensation with a rabid and enthusiastic community labeling maps of their cities with names and descriptions we all think of; but are a bit too shy to say out loud. Collected here in a full color; beautifully packaged book with all new; never before published material; Judgmental Maps is laugh out loud funny from New York to Los Angeles; Minneapolis to Atlanta and offending everyone else in between.

A personal diary accounting the events of the Civil War from a first person perspective. I discovered this book years ago in Charleston South Carolina and was delighted to see it quoted heavily in Ken Burns "Civil War". When I met Kim Burns years later; we had a wonderful discussion about the depth of this particular book and the invaluable contribution it's made in putting a personal touch on such a major historical period.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Absolutely Fascinating!By luvgoodbksA DIARY FROM DIXIE is absolutely fascinating. As a southern woman; I enjoyed reading of many areas back then that I know in modern times. More interesting; though; are the emotions; observations; and experiences felt by Mrs. Chestnut during such a horrendous time in our history. I highly recommend this book to any history buff; but especially to those who want to know the humanity behind this era's historical data.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
