ITM har kart over hele verden og de spesialiserer seg på land litt utenfor allfarvei. Beliggenheten til landets nasjonalparker, historiske monumenter, de viktigste veiene o.L. Finner du inkludert i kartene. Samtlige landkart har ofte et bykart over hovedstaden.

Fra ITM: Travel to Mexico is exploding at the moment, as Covid restrictions lift. That portion of Mexico that forms the relatively narrow land mass between Mexico City and the Yucatan Peninsula is called the Isthmus of Mexico. It consists of three states, Oaxaca, in the west, Chiapas in the east, and Guerrero in the west. This is a double-sided map, stretching from west of Acapulco to beyond the border with Guatemala along the Pacific coast, and from Veracruz to Carmen along the Gulf of Mexico coast. It is the part of Mexico containing numerous holiday resort areas for sun-lovers, but is also rich in history and attractive colonial-era towns.

Oaxaca City is a UNESCO World Heritage site, as is the Mayan temple site of Palenque. There are numerous archeological sites in the region to explore, such as Monte Alban, which dates from the 8th Century BC. The colourful mining town of Taxco, with its narrow cobblestone streets, is a must-see, as is San Cristobal de Las Casas, in Chiapas State. This is an extremely popular part of Mexico to visit, so we are very pleased to be able to bring it back into print.

Fra ITM: The northern Pacific coastline of Mexico borders on California and Arizona and is a popular travel destination. Sonora is the more northerly state of Mexico, bordering on Baja California on its west (much of which is included on this map) Nogales is probably the best-known city, although Hermosillo is the capital. Sinaloa is more southerly, and is probably best known for Mazatlán, the popular ocean resort community and cruise ship port of call. Sinaloa is also the starting point for the famous train excursion known as the Copper Canyon, originating in Los Mochis. The rail route is shown on the map. The canyon is actually in Chihuahua State, which is included on this map, and goes through a portion of Mexico that is pretty much devoid of roads. The trip ends in Cuauhtémoc, but users are advised to stay on the train to the capital city, also called Chihuahua. We have included the top ten attractions of the region, including the Pinacate Volcanic Field, the Nacapule Canyon, and Las Labradas World Heritage site. This is a part of Mexico easy to reach from the USA, and has many attractive cities

Fra ITM: Mexico is a fascinating country, and as travel re-opens, is proving to be very popular. This most recent edition was recently printed, and is now the current edition. Double sided detailed travel map, with comprehensive place name index. Distinguishes roads ranging from expressways (free/toll) to rural roads. Legend includes railways, tracks, trails, international airports, domestic airports, bridges, border crossing points, points of interest, archaeological sites, beaches, active volcanos, filling stations, national parks, deserts, places of touristic interest. Printed on durable, water-resistant plastic paper, suitable for travelling in areas with extreme humidity. This is another chestnut in the ITMB line, and sells well. The cover picture is new, as is the ISBN. Mexico is a very large and diverse country, and very popular with Americans. Again, there is little one can say that is news about such a tried-and-true map, except to say that it is extremely popular.

During his campaign for the presidency, one of Donald Trump's signature promises was that he would build a "great great wall" on the border between the US and Mexico, and Mexico was going to pay for it. A year and a half into his term, with only a few prototype segments erected, the wall is the 2,000-mile, multibillion-dollar elephant in the room of contemporary American life. In The Great Great Wall, architectural historian and critic Ian Volner takes a deep dive into the story of Trump's wall.

Volner follows the conception, selling, design, and construction (or lack thereof)of this expensive and consequential barrier, giving readers a detailed look at what's happening in Washington, DC, and along the border. He also travels far afield, to China, the Middle East, Northern England, and back to our border to examine the barriers we've been building for centuries. Why do we build walls? What do they reveal about human history? The Great Great Wall is an absorbing, smart, and timely book on an incredibly contentious and newsworthy topic.
