World of Maps Turns 25

Published on 4 October 2019 by Jonathan Crowe

World of Maps (27 Nov 2017)

My local map store—or at least the one closest to me—is World of Maps in Ottawa. Unlike other map stores whose closings I’ve had to cover here, it’s still a going concern: an Ottawa community newspaper, the Kitchissippi Times, marks World of Maps’s 25th year in business.
