From the Author

Hello city map and coloring enthusiasts! As of July 10, 2016, the book is now much improved. This is in response to the fantastic reader feedback I've gotten. The roads are easier to color, Venice's canals are now connected to the Grand Canal, Notre Dame is looking like a grand cathedral, and lots more! I hope you enjoy it!

About the Author

Gretchen first heard of coloring for adults at an office "lunch and color" event. Discussing business over a coloring book turned out to be a good thing. Since Gretchen is a cartographer who makes lots of maps, conducts map workshops, writes cartography textbooks and a popular map tricks blog, it was a natural fit for her to produce these absorbing and fascinating map coloring pages.
