Item description from seller

This 1997 first edition copy is sold in FINE condition between FINE illustrated board covers. Where did mazes come from? Why were they made? What are the secrets of maze design and how can you make one yourself? Aerial photographs, overhead plans and archive illustrations help unravel the answers to these questions in this introduction to the world of the maze. Features include: an acetate sheet and "wipe-off" pen to enable the reader to trace an exit from 50 of the world's mazes; instructions on designing a maze; and an international gazeteer of the world's mazes. The history and mythology of the origins of the maze are explored, including a visit to Grace Cathedral in San Francisco - a maze believed to have healing powers, and a look at labyrinths created in virtual reality. Puzzle solutions provide help for anyone who becomes.
