Title: Harvey tries to write like Tony Horwitz, but can't
Review: Many of the reviews here have this book pegged; too much truly uninteresting information about the author, reads like a padded-out book report, needs better editing. You get the idea that Harvey would like to have written a book like "Confederates in the Attic"; breezy, informative, filled with quirky people, and with honest and provocative insights by the author. Harvey doesn't seem to have it in him. "The Island of Lost Maps" is, by comparison, plodding, not so informative, populated by almost no quirky people, and too full of the author's pompous navel-gazing. The only parts that were interesting related to Bland, and the piecing together of his extended life of map crime. Stay away from this one.
