The idea of North

The idea of North

Davidson, Peter

About this book

"North is the point on the map by which we orient ourselves. It is also the direction taken throughout history by the adventurous, the curious, the solitary and the foolhardy. In The Idea of North Peter Davidson explores the very concept of 'north' through its various manifestations in painting, legend and literature."--Jacket.
