USA: Northeast
Ordinær pris 199,00 krITM 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: The original British colonies that prospered were the ones closest to England. Makes sense! Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and New York were relatively closer to London than Virginia and the Carolinas, so they got the benefits of the Industrial Revolution first. This part of the USA is riddled with historic sites, as well as large urban areas, such as Boston and NYC. Its charm as a regional map is that it combines like-minded areas together on one sheet at a scale that is manageable and easy to read. There are countless parks to explore, such as Campobello, which is actually in Canada, but most easily accessed from Maine. The Cape Cod peninsula is one of the most visited sites in the USA, with colonial-era Provincetown at its tip. There are many motorways and highways that allow easy travel, as well as rapid train services along the coast to NYC and Washington. Side 2 concentrates on the rest of New York State and shows a fair portion of Pennsylvania. Although the Canadian border areas are shown, along with crossings, relatively little of the countryside north of the USA is shown in order to concentrate one’s efforts on exploring the historic heart of America.
USA: Chicago & Illinois
Ordinær pris 199,00 krITM har kart over hele verden og de spesialiserer seg på land litt utenfor allfarvei. Beliggenheten til landets nasjonalparker, historiske monumenter, de viktigste veiene og lignende finner du inkludert i kartene. Samtlige landkart har ofte et bykart over hovedstaden.
Fra ITM: Chicago is one of the largest cities in the USA and has long been famous for its rail hub joining lines from the east coast to those serving the western regions. It is also the start (or the finish) of famed Route 66, the first paved highway to the Pacific. Side 1 covers the city from the convention centre north to Wrigleyville and from the lakefront west to Western Avenue, with a large inset of Greater Chicago and another of Oak Park (famous for being the home of Frank Lloyd Wright). Side 2 is a brand new map for ITMB, being of the great state of Illinois, of which Chicago is a small part. This side traces Route 66 southwest from its origins in downtown Chicago to somewhat beyond St. Louis, where the national highway continues into Missouri. This map starts on Wisconsin in the north, at Minneapolis, and continues south to western Kentucky, ending at Nashville, Tennessee and is loaded with touristic attractions that are sure to delight visitors.

USA: Appalachian Trail
Ordinær pris 199,00 krThis is a new venture for ITMB, although we have published several recreational hiking maps over the years. The Appalachian mountain range was the original western boundary of the American colonies while under British rule. Everything west of there was technically the French possession of Louisiana Territory, called by American settlers ‘Indian country’. Nowadays, it is a massive recreational hinterland for east coast residents wanting to escape overcrowded cities. The National Parks Service maintains the trail and a series of overnight huts.
Most people only hike a portion of the trail, but for the dedicated hiker, the trail is a great adventure. We have divided the length of the trail into four natural regions: Maine into New York State, Connecticut south to Maryland, Maryland to Virginia, and Virginia to Georgia, to its traditional end at Springer Mountain. This is a demanding trail hike, but one of the most popular in the world.

1000 års gleder og sorger memoarer
Ordinær pris 449,00 kr1000 års gleder og sorger er de etterlengtede memoarene fra en av verdens viktigste levende kunstnere.
Ai Weiweis skulpturer og installasjoner har blitt sett av millioner over hele verden, og hans politiske aktivisme har lenge gjort ham til et mål for kinesiske myndigheter.
I sine memoarer gir Ai Weiwei oss et portrett av Kina fra de siste hundre år, samtidig som han belyser sin kunstneriske prosess. Det er også historien om hans far, Ai Qing, en gang nær venn av Mao Zedong, og en av Kinas mest innflytelsesrike diktere. Under kulturrevolusjonen ble Ai Qing stemplet som dissident og dømt til straffarbeid. Hele familien, inkludert sønnen, ble forvist til en avsidesliggende og øde del av landet kjent som "Lille Sibir".
Ai Weiwei beskriver barndommen i eksil og den vanskelige beslutningen om å forlate familien for å studere kunst i Amerika, hvor han ble venn med Allen Ginsberg og ble inspirert av Marcel Duchamp og Andy Warhol. Og han forteller om sin retur til Kina og veien fra ukjent kunstner til kunstverdenens superstjerne og internasjonal menneskerettighetsaktivist – og hvordan hans arbeid har blitt formet ved å leve under et totalitært regime.
1000 års gleder og sorger gir en dyp forståelse av de utallige kreftene som har formet det moderne Kina og tjener som en påminnelse om det presserende behovet for å beskytte ytringsfriheten.

On the Road
Ordinær pris 189,00 krOn the Road chronicles Jack Kerouac's years traveling the North American continent with his friend Neal Cassady, "a sideburned hero of the snowy West." As "Sal Paradise" and "Dean Moriarty," the two roam the country in a quest for self-knowledge and experience. Kerouac's love of America, his compassion for humanity, and his sense of language as jazz combine to make On the Road an inspirational work of lasting importance.
Kerouac’s classic novel of freedom and longing defined what it meant to be “Beat” and has inspired every generation since its initial publication more than fifty years ago.
USA: San Diego & California South
Ordinær pris 169,00 krITM 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: In the southwest corner of the American mainland is the port city of San Diego, one of the major hubs of the US Navy. The city itself is very interesting, with a city centre dominated by colonial-styled buildings. Balboa Park is home to one of the best zoos in North America, and the historic 'old town' area north of the city centre has become a popular 'Old Mexico' theme attraction. As well, there is the Tijuana Trolley, which is, in fact, a modern surface-rail tram line that goes from the city centre to close to the walk-across border with Mexico into colourful downtown Tijuana. A day visit to Mexico is one of the highlights of a visit to San Diego! Enjoy!

USA: Texas & Oklahoma
Ordinær pris 149,00 krUSA: Seattle & Washington State
Ordinær pris 199,00 krThe actual area of the map includes Portland and northern Oregon and Vancouver and the border area with the USA. A small portion of Idaho is also shown. Wilderness campsites, parks such as Rainier, Olympic, and Baker, are shown. Seattle as a city, stretches far beyond the confines of a practical map in that it stretches from Everett to Tacoma. Our map covers from the University in the north to the Beacon hill neighbourhood in the south and from the waterfront to Lake Washington.
An inset map of the greater region is included. The rapid transit line is also included on the map and on the back cover. The reverse side of the sheet shows all the roads of Washington State in excellent Olympic, and Baker, state parks, touristic sites, beaches, ferry routes, native reserves, motorways, and even the ill-fated Hanford nuclear site are included. The map is printed on ITM waterproof paper for durability.
USA: Grand Canyon & Arizona
Ordinær pris 169,00 krArizona is an amazingly attractive State to visit, with Route 66 attractions in the north, bustling Phoenix in the centre, and a strongly-influenced Mexican influence in the south. Thus, a travel map for the state makes sense, and this one shows camping sites, local attractions (including Tombstone) and includes inset maps for Flagstaff and Grand Canyon Village. Its main attraction, however, is Grand Canyon, a deep defile carved out over millennia by the Colorado River, on its way to the Gulf of Mexico. This is one of nature's wonders, and a "must see" for everyone.
This results in a very interesting and useful map, covering both one of the most interesting States in America AND one of the great natural phenomena of the world. The map is printed on waterproof and biodegradable stone paper, which is a technological marvel in its own right, in this case for durability rather than to protect against moisture.
