Prisoners of Geography


Prisoners of Geography by Tim Marshall is a very well-written primer in geopolitics. In simple language, Marshall explained the geographic details of every major landmass in the world and then why those details either were exceptionally favorable, like the U.S.A. in North America or not favorable, such as Africa. I thought his explanations of troubles in the Middle East were particularly pithy. If the subject interests you at all, this is a great read. Thanks to my sister Pam who sent me her copy.
