Henry Hargreaves worked on the project together with the New York-based stylist Caitlin Levin (Caitlin Levin). Together, they have created a map that avid travelers will recognize India gathered from spices, "tomato" Italy, "banana" Africa, Australia, shrimp and other countries. Of course, such an atlas, not only pleases the eye, but also the stomach.
