A Geography of the Early Limerick
Ever since I heard of Google Earth I realised it would be very useful for limerick lovers, but I was too lazy to try and find out how to create interactive maps until I found this post at the Stoa Consortium blog; so here come kmz files for each of the four limerick books published in the early 1820s, with links to the limericks themselves. To use these you’ll have to download and install Google Earth.
- The History of Sixteen Wonderful Old Women [1820]
- Anecdotes and Adventures of Fifteen Gentlemen [1821]
- Anecdotes and Adventures of Fifteen Young Ladies [1822]
- A Peep at the Geography of Europe [1824]
You can also download a file containing maps for all four books.
