The 1:50, 000 topographic map gives a more general picture of the ground features than a basic map. It shows settlements, houses, roads, cultivated areas, waterways, cutting areas, mires, rock exposures, & relief. One map sheet covers an area of 30 x 40 km & one centimetre corresponds to 500 metres on the ground. The 1:50, 000 topographic map is also an ideal complement to nautical charts as it provides useful information about the land areas adjacent to waterways. For example, all Finnish sea areas are covered by 1:50, 000 topographic map sheets. ...

One night, Akram Khan walks out of his house towards an appointed time & place where he is supposed to detonate a bomb that will end his life & that of many innocent bystanders.

Akram tells Grace about his seemingly inexorable journey towards radicalization: a childhood within the tight-knit Pakistani community, his complex friendships among outcasts, his disastrous years in the army, & his empty arranged marriage to a woman who remains a stranger. Delicately drawn, Akram`s War is an honest & shocking kaleidoscopic portrait of contemporary Britain, & of the ways in which the twists & turns of fate can scar & mark a life. ...
