When it comes to geography, things aren't always as they might appear to be. That's what Alastair Bonnett preaches in his new book, Unruly Places: Lost Spaces, Secret Cities, and Other Inscrutable Geographies. Bonnett describes several places that defy conventional geography, such as the city of pilots who call the parking lot of Los Angeles International Airport home, the island that can be found in Google Maps but doesn't actually exist, and the labyrinth of tunnels that run below Minneapolis-St. Paul.
