Prisoners of Geography

This was a fantastic start into reading more nonfiction. How will anything else compare?

Tim Marshall gives a solid overview of how various countries foreign policy, borders and difficulties were defined by their geography. While the scope of this book wasn't incredibly detailed, I learnt a lot and found myself with more areas of interest to read more about.

I would also like to highly recommend the audiobook for this one, I found it to be a great asset when trying to stare at maps and read at the same time.
