Thematic Mapping by Kenneth Field
Kenneth Field is a cartographic rockstar and one of the best in the business today.
In mapping circles, election maps are legendary. Not just because they get lots of press every election cycle but because the kinds of conclusions drawn from them are often quite different from what the data says. There are so many ways to visualize an election and so many stories to tell from a single (big!) data set. Every map in this book is of a US presidential election even though Kenneth is from the UK. Maybe he’s also a masochist? Probably. He’s also a big cricket fan.
