Infinite City, Rebecca Solnit's brilliant reinvention of the traditional atlas, searches out the answer by examining the many layers of meaning, culture and history in one locale, the San Francisco Bay Area. Aided by artists, writers and cartographers, Solnit has compiled twenty-two gorgeous color maps, each of which illuminates San Francisco and its surroundings as experienced by different inhabitants..."
