I liked it, but it wasn't as good as I hoped. A lot of interesting ideas were raised but they weren't quite tied together to my satisfaction. It felt like a long, wandering magazine article.
While reading, I remembered that I had written a short paper on this same subject for my 9th grade geography class decades ago. I should see if I can find it...

Words try to be funny (but they're mostly not funny). Illustrations try to be Gorey-esque (but they're never as good as [a:Gorey|21578|Edward Gorey|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1200338278p2/21578.jpg]). The incident with the stamp was the best bit. Overall, far below my expectations.
