RSGS lecture – Andrew Barr: How to Map a Country

September 22 @ 7:30 pm

Writer and artist Andrew Redmond Barr presents

The Atlas of Scotland, a creative project that uses hand drawn maps and illustrations to tell Scotland’s story, inviting us to reconnect with where we came from.

The Atlas explores in detail how Scotland was made, its history, culture and its long-standing as one of the ancient kingdoms of Europe. Taking you far beyond Scotland, it also delves into old European trade routes of Scottish merchants, the Scottish National Antarctic Expedition and much more.
