Strange and Joan Spruce First edition published in 2002 ISBN 0-9538618-8-0 Visitor's map of the Falkland Islands, at a scale of about 1:365,000, including a handy plan of the central part of Stanley, the capital. This map is designed to appeal especially to passengers on cruise ships that visit the Falklands, but will also interest those who explore the archipelago in other ways. It is illustrated with 24 colour photos and 6 black and white pictures. The Falklands are an Overseas Territory of the United Kingdom, and are the same distance from the South Pole as Britain is from the North Pole. The nearest landmass is Tierra del Fuego, some 280 miles away in South America. The population is mainly of British descent, and numbers about 2,500. There are 248 miles of roads in the Falklands, and no traffic lights. Features of the map include a historical time line, charting the islands' history from their discovery in the 16th century to the present day. There are also illustrated biographies of explorers and other notable people who have influenced the archipelago's history and development.
